Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

JimW, That adventure race in the snow sounds fun, are you saying fit enough to run a half marathon was not sufficient! I did a one day adventure race in Mayo two weeks ago (Gael Force West). There were some serious competitors in the race including former Olympians, I didn't come in the prizes but I posted a respectable time considering the limited training I had done. I think the hardest thing is getting up and going again the next day unless you have serious miles of training done and once my legs stopped moving I have serious muscle soreness and fatigue that didn't go away for three or four days.

redrunmarcus, Well I would be interested for sure. I would like to try the challenge on all 4 of my trips next season, snow and weather and Vanoise Express permitting. So if this was the case I would get a lot of use out of it!

Boredsurfing, will certainly need one if he is going via La Ros and that cold drag lift. I am sure Cockahoop would be interested and Fr0sty the Sn0wman, if it means he gets a free beer in the bar after NehNeh

Ray Zorro as I said in my opening post this is just for a bit of fun. Speed isn't everything! Part of the fun will be the route and which lifts to use, on the La Plagne side there are several routes/lifts that can be used just to get to the Vanoise express, who knows what may lay on the 'other side' wink
There is no set route to follow, get the Paradiski dvd in the PC and start planning the route on the interactive map Toofy Grin
http://www.perso-laplagne.fr/Skilifts.htm has details of each lft including running speed of each lift wink

So your group will need 8 fleeces then wink

Boredsurfing, but what about the likely queue length at each lift, bottlenecks to be avoided etc etc where will I find information on that? It all needs to be factored in.

Actually there will be 9 of us, but the 2 mums do not do fast Shocked

Ray Zorro, Now thats the sort of information that isn't written down Toofy Grin But queues can form at anytime should a lift breakdown, someone has an accident getting on or off or a large group are faffing around deciding who is going to sit next to whom Laughing

9 fleeces then wink

Hi all having spoken to suppliers it looks like the cost is likely to be £10 per gilet do I still have the same interest?
