Guide d’Ays and Gnifetti are usually garded in May, Gnifetti can be busy at that time. There is an other hut half an hour below Gnifetti, whose name is Mantova.
Let’s see if I can find their phone numbers … and I will post it here.
Here a link for Gnifetti http://www.montagneinvalledaosta.com/SITO/pagine/rifugi%20e%20bivacchi/0079.asp
