BurninLuv wrote:Hi!! I'm returning to Champoluc next week. We usually stay at Hotel du Champoluc but its full so we've booked an apartment down the road near the chemist. Can anyone let me know the cost of a ski locker at La Glisse at the bottom of the gondola please. Just think it'll be easier to change into shoes and leave gear there rather than having to walk back to apartment in ski boots, after a few Spritze's in Autelier Gourmand!! Many thanks for any info.

Ski lockers are normally expensive, normally around the €2 per day range,
good value for money if like me me you don't like walking in ski boots :wink:

markchealy wrote:Hello,
I'm hoping to do a 1 or 2 day beginners group lesson somewhere near Geneva (preferably within 1.5 hrs by public transport). Can anyone please recommend a suitable resort and suggest the best way to find some last minute accommodation? Is it possible to get group lessons in English? Thanks very much!

When do you hope to go

I've had some north face sallos this last 5 years and they've been amazing, and obviously fit a lot better than the cheap brands. But if you want to look like a numpty, feel free.
I'm getting me some Norronja pants for next season.

I always get my pants from John Lewis -)
