"Must do" runs in 3 valleys

The 3 valleys piste map is so big that it takes a bit of getting used to to follow it from page to page

I'd consider a "wipeout" goggles cleaner/piste map that's been talked about on here before as a great investment as the paper version gets knackered quickly when you have to check it often

I have nowt to do with the company etc - nut am a satisfied customer for both this one and the Espace Killy version. Oh and dunno if you've seen any advertising or in shops etc but apparently it's Christmas soon......

just put one for espace killy on my xmas list...

The only bits you really need to know are which the link lifts are and what's on the other side. The area is well sign posted, so you should know where you are heading.

its a piece of piste what are you worrying about take loze over to courcheval then head to mottaret then menuires and finally vt from their just keep going downhill until you hit st martin then back to meribel and down to brides les bains

Thanks Andy :)

I've bought two maps :mrgreen:

I'll take mine off the list then and borrow one of yours :twisted:

Very funny, Daved, nice try :)

But my spare piste map won't do you much good because I've ordered it for my younger daughter and it's of the 3 valleys - because that's where she's heading with her uni ski club :D

because Porkpie specifically said "She's alright with reds, but she's only truly happy when she's in control, so doesn't like too many reds at once"

So needs to be a little more circumspect

I can get anywhere to anywhere in 3V but if I have beginners/timid intermediates then I have to think about the route a lot more as the last thing that you want to do is to scare the you know whats out of someone when they should be enjoying one of the greatest ares in the world
