My Bolle Slide Visor sourced directly from France came with 2 easily replaceable visors: one for sunny and the other for cloudy conditions:)

Hi Ncouse,
I've struggled with prescription glasses under goggles for years. I got myself Bolle Slide Visor ski helmet with an integrated visor for a January ski trip to Cortina. I could not be happier with results. The visor did not mist and enabled much wider peripheral vision. I do recommend a helmet with a visor:) |

Hi Rok,
I've been to Cervinia with flight to Geneva. It is linked to Valtournenche lower down the valley and Zermatt in Switzerland with a combined skiing area of 350 km. Well worth a visit. Some other skiers that we met also recommended La Thuille which is even closer to Geneva airport. It is linked by lifts with a french resort of La Rosiere with a total ski area of 160 km. Hope it helps. |

Agree :thumbup:
We would love to go back to Dolomites for our next ski trip and base ourselves in another resort/valley off Masif Sella for a change. This time we got to know Corvara, La Vila & San Cassiano areas fairly well in addition to Cortina and Hidden Valley of course. Other valleys: Val Gardena, Arabba/Marmolada and Val di Fassa seemed lovely during our Sella Ronda tour. Any of them will do :lol: |

Yeah, We are lucky with snow in Cortina this season :) I want to go back asap :!:

We have just returned from a fabulous week in Cortina and Dolomites :)
It was our first trip to this mountain range and hopefully not last :wink: It is easily achievable to ski from Cortina to Alta Badia and Sella Ronda resorts from Cortina. It starts with a free ski bus ride from Cortina's bus station to the bottom of Cinque Torri ski lift. From there it is skiing all the way to Alta Badia taking the most beautiful scenery one can imagine including Hidden Valley run from the top of Lagazuoi. Additonal attraction is a horse drawn drag lift! Please help the horses on the last short but steepish incline before the end as it is 40+ skiers and sleigh and only 2 x HP :wink: The return from Sella Ronda / Alta Badia is by Cortina Express bus from Corvara, La Villa or San Casssiano at the cost of 6 - 10 euros pp. The last bus leaves Corvara at 18:10. |

Need to start packing very soon.
All lifts open :D |

The one we had was a 2-person toboggan. Steering them could be a bit of a challenge, depending on how difficult the toboggan run is. The best thing is to call Thomson/Crystal, explain the situation and ask for their advice. Hope it helps
