Hi Bill.

I assume that you actually want to get to the Madonna di Campiglio ski area. There is a bus from Passo Tonale to Marilleva, where you can get a lift up into the ski area.

Modern science is quite capable of backtracking your alcohol level knowing the time of accident and time of test.

This futuristic design of ski boot has the added innovation of keeping one's feet warm!


Don't forget the added benefit of having your own injected liners, so the boot will mould to your feet perfectly every time you hit a bump :twisted:
