Yes, started appearing a couple of months ago and gradually filling out the smaller reports. A very useful enhancement.

Great facility. I've just has a good look at Espace Killy. Seems to be accurate. In fact, probably more accurate in terms of orientation of pistes and lifts than the official piste map.
slippy slidey snow......me likey!

Hi,

How do you view this in Google Maps?

I've just tried (for Espace Killy). I couldn't see any options to enable the display of the pistes. I tried in Internet Explorer and Firefox.

Thanks.

Not sure about plain old maps, but if you go to our maps pages, like...

Zoom in... you can see pistes AND lifts marked on the map. It's not the clearest of presentations but it's not bad for a first pass.... :lol:
