Well - cold outside makes a difference but another factor is the altitude and the boiling point of water, which decreases with altitude.
So food gets to boiling point but at a lower temperature.
And I'm not going to go and find a link to the charts, but a soft boiled egge at 1800m needs 6 mins.

Of course; I had to paraphrase as this is an open forum and people of tender years and sensitive dispositions may read it.

Oh and on topic - I take a selection of my old stuff for emergencies, hats, goggles, glasses, gloves etc. Then there is a spare to hand when needed.
Mind you OH is as bad, lost count of the number of times we return to restaurants to pick up kit left behind.

:lol: know exactly what you mean - 12yo went through 2 pairs in one week - still got the final ones bought though (+4years)
So - one weeks skiing = 3 pairs of sunglasses, one UK and not expensive, 2 x Morzine and about £30.
And don't mention gloves left in lifts, hats ........
lift passes (but always managed to find these).
Forgotten where skis left (that was @16yo when beer was a major consideration).
Oh and forgot where he was staying @14yo when given a little freedom in resort.
Oh yes ......
Went for ski on own as parents were being boring. 40 min ski back to resort became 4 hours, we were never quite able to work out exactly where he had been but it was quite a journey.
:mrgreen:
Kids????
Love 'em :thumbup:
