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

I'm aware of that. I'd like to peruse it in the 75 days before I get there thanks. And no, I don't want to look at the digital one.

The piste map for Saas-Fee changes regularly due to the glaciers melting. At least 10 pistes/runs have disappeared in the last 30 years, including the whole Hannig area.
For example this summer they have been cutting a new piste to replace the old red run which linked the Metro area to the Felskinn side of the resort. The old run had become too steep and narrow to be a red run, especially with poor snow conditions. Without this work lower ability skiers and boarders would loose access to a numbers of runs, as once you leave the top Metro pistes, the only way is down this piste.

@Roguevfr, I totally understand, though I don’t have one. Doing homework in advance has saved my bacon many times.

Have you tried an email to the tourist office saying how much you are looking forward to the visit and whether they could possibly post you a copy?

I can understand wanting a paper one to put in your pocket when you go out on the slopes, but in the comfort of your own home even being old-fashioned doesn't really explain why you'd prefer it over a scrollable, zoomable pdf or similar.

He doesn't have to explain
I don't like online piste maps either

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

I rarely find zoomable digital maps to resolve in any great resolution, so they're no real advantage over a paper one , also, I like to peruse it in circumstances where a phone or tablet is neither appropriate nor ideal.

The one I linked to should not lose resolution as you zoom in (up to 500%).
