Been reading this thread with interest, booked to go to Selva next February half term, first time in Italy, and am fascinated to know how people know their skied distance, is it something that you work out yourselves, or do the ski passes allow you to measure your ski distance? |
There is a website for the dolomites where you can put in your lift pass number, and it will tell you which lifts you used, showing elevation gained/lost and an estimate of distance. The distanvce can only ever be an estimate, becaus it often can't be sure of what route you took from the top of one lift to the bottom of the next.
There is a similar system now for many Austrian resorts at www.skiline.cc

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Here is the link for the Dolomiti recorder.

It will give you figures and even animate your lift choices and show you views of where you went. As many have pointed out, it does not know by which routes you descended, so it will not be totally accurate.
Please remember the whole Dolomiti experience is about scenery and ambiance. It is not just a Km clocking game!
Anybody been up to the top right area - Helm I think it is? My friend Kate is off there next week and was wondering about it. There are no references to the area on snowHeads.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Not actually booked Dolomiti for the new season yet - waiting on a fitness test for Bev on the glacier at Tignes for later this week. I was fancying going to Cortina for a change, but no TOs seem to go there and as I have to do Feb half-term a TO deal is my best bet. Anyone any suggestions?
