Espace Killy Piste Map 2012-13

Apart from the change to Face and the entry to the red alongside it mentioned before:

Tunnel piste and the lift to it are gone (were rarely open)

New Fontaine Froid chair (replacement rather than new)

There's a toboggan run marked in Val village by the nursery slopes that I don't remember seeing before?

Thanks Andy :)
So, if I'm using my special new glasses cleaning piste map, I might be rather a long time trying to find the Tunnel piste and lift :shock:

I think it was gone last year too but still on the map - the lift was never running when I passed

If you look on YouTube you can see people doing the run and you'll soon conclude you're not missing anything!!!!!

I can't check my new glasses-cleaning piste map now to see if that piste is on it, because I've put it away ready for Mother Christmas to put in my stocking :wink:

I've been to Val D'Isere many times, but I've never seen the tunnel run open. I'd have liked to have skied it just to say I had, but can't say it's a huge loss.

Ive seen the drag lift up to it open once (though it may have only be serving the black run on the same side (which has also gone form the map) rather than the Tunnel piste

Ive never done it and don't feel that I'm missing anything judging by the clip I saw on YouTube

The new entrance to the red alongside the Face will be on my list though and may be intrigued to see what the tobogganing is all about down by the nursery lifts.

The 3000 black 'piste' always seems to be covered in lumps of ice the size of basketballs. I wouldn't want to hit one or be hit by one.
