-7. Went to Verbier last Saturday. Very good it was too

Skied Davos for a week. It was good but I wouldn't go back. Been to Murren in summer. It would be Murren for mine.

Big bucket. Only two hours away so will give it a weekend visit.

Not a fan of the gay-tray brigade. Some exceptions of course but mainly young blokes trying to be cool but mainly being complete flogs.
Sauze on the bucket list.

Googled Eco Chalet but couldn't find it. Poss to get contact info?

Good riddance. Those drag-lifts are absolute rubbish and have no place in a decent resort.

The other area that would really benefit from something, (anything!) is the flat bit across to the lift back over Passo Campolongo towards Arabba (can't remember its name). By the time you've taken your skis off to cross the road, floored it to get across the 'junction' (usually having to stop for 'oncoming traffic' who seem incapable of going around you) then hiked up the short hill (due to having to stop) I for one am knackered! Can't understand why the lift is not 10/20m longer, would make all the difference....

Geez, it is a hard audience. It is only a twenty metre walk in a stretch of god knows how many kilometres. I think I have floored it and almost made it to the lift.

I love the runs from Corvara down to that area.

Any idea how much these bad-boys cost?
