After a long 12 month wait I leave for the Dolomites tomorrow!
I'm only doing 4 days skiing, which is a shame, but hopefully I can make the most of it!
I’m only doing 3 days on the slopes in under 2 weeks - I think 4 days is the perfect number, 3 just that bit too short/rushed (but sadly I don’t have the leave remaining to do it)I'm only doing 4 days skiing, which is a shame, but hopefully I can make the most of it!

Not quite sure where he disappeared tbh but have a vague idea on where. But I don't know the lifts etc
Was found and rescued at 8pm. I doubt his insurance will cover it so could be an interesting bill
But No, I wouldn't do back country without the minimum ava gear.
fking Americans ??
Always get the best insurance cover - you never know and it’s the last thing you need to be worrying about after a nasty incident Was found and rescued at 8pm. I doubt his insurance will cover it so could be an interesting bill
But No, I wouldn't do back country without the minimum ava gear.

The insurance they offer with the lift passes is generally good value as well.
€2 for a helicopter ride and st loads of drugs is the best €2 my mate ever spent.
Actually surely the mountain companies should all include said insurance with every ticket ie it’s compulsory as no doubt countless people can’t afford heli lifts etc €2 for a helicopter ride and st loads of drugs is the best €2 my mate ever spent.

No lift pass insurance is going to cover you off-piste.
Winter sports cover generally doesn't cover you off-piste unless you're with an accredited guide.
You need specialist mountaineering insurance to be covered if you're in the back country on your own.
I never venture off piste - more than happy enough on piste Winter sports cover generally doesn't cover you off-piste unless you're with an accredited guide.

No, we go friday, bit concerned, there was huge amounts of snow forecast, now it's gone still, it's our first time skiing, so we won't really know any different I guess?
What runs were you doing? I've studied the map extensively!
If you’ve never skied before you will likely spend 2 days maybe 3 just on the nursary slope thereafter 1 or 2 blues for the rest of the week. What runs were you doing? I've studied the map extensively!

hi guys i have a question
if you were to buy a sml place in a ski resort no more than 1.5 hrs away from geneva where would it be and why ?
budget is lowish 200k-400k chf or eur
im single but want a pad that offers nice village and good skiing
i prefer the swiss in general so was thinking of Champéry.....but like all things swiss you get less for your money
any input greatly appreciated
Think you might not be single in the future and you might have kids so suddenly that lovely small pad becomes not appropriate if you were to buy a sml place in a ski resort no more than 1.5 hrs away from geneva where would it be and why ?
