I went to passo a few years ago very short runs a real up and down place, we spent most of our time there down the road at Ponti legno where the runs are a tad harder so it is not a place for Intermediates and above unless you don't mind jumping on the bus down the valley to Madonna, I found the hotel we stayed in to be very good.


Thanks Wickers....I have been before and totally agree....but as it is free!!!! it seemed foolish to turn it down...Not looking forward to the coach journey though! :(
Carving leaves me all on edge

Good show Bald Eagleman I am sure the bus ride will be fine.

I have a question to all, I am off to ADH on 30 March, the forecasts show lots of the white stuff next week but most forecasts show plus temp figs after 27th and also show rain.

My question is this, will it be chucking it down with rain when I go or do the forecasts work to a lower altitude? ADH is 1800m + so does that mean the rain forecasted will be snow when I go on 30th?

Not sure how to call it, any knowledgable weather geeks out there?

Yes - you're at the top of the list today :thumbup:

The list is looking rather sad and short now :cry:
So I've added Far Queue and myself to it for the 2014 group holiday to Folgarida :D

He's going to drive, and I think I'm going on the train, so I reckon we'll both be leaving a day early, on the 1st February.

I'll add everyone else later, but at the moment most of them aren't too sure how they're getting there or which day they'll be leaving on (because a lot of the flights aren't on sale yet).
