Ski Lift Running on Solar Power

Contact the Swiss tourist office here:

www.myswitzerland.com

They will be able to put you in touch with the relevant people.

Secondly, try Westendorf (Austria) who have a solar powered rope tow:

www.westendorf.net

Finally, use your common sense! If you really want to find out about something the internet is a great resource. All I did was use Google to obtain information... you should try it.

Why don't you just email the ski resort? They would be able to answer all your questions without the mindless speculation.

As well as doing my second most loved sport of Jetskiing I might give surfing a bash :)

Gonna stay in an old Boeing 727 50ft up in the trees for five nights of it also, keeping the theme of our meeting alive :)

My target of 60 days riding has stalled on 41, even with a couple of glacier weekends I won't make it, but hey it was fun trying!!!


The only thing I dislike about surfing is that I'm not very good at it!! Great fun though :D

Is your blog still going? Sounds great. Friend of mine spent some time in Costra Rica and loved it.

I'd break up that all of text!

Try and contact the resort directly. I'd imagine the ski patrol would have information.

The article says that the panels will provide enough energy to power the lifts (ie. extremely low cost energy,only really the initial capital payment) and any excess will be sold back to the grid.

Still not totally convinced that you have read through it :lol:
