 Poster: A snowHead
|
We are off to sunny Verbier (well technically Le Chable) tonight for a week and thought we might go for a day trip to Saas Fe for a ski.
What time do we need to be there? What time is it all over for the day?
I suspect it may involve a very early start...but heck...a ski day!!

rungsp, Probably need to be there around 07.00 - 07.30 and the skiing will probably finish around 13.00 - 14.00. I don't know exactly. BTW The Delambres haven't forgotton about contacting you, but have just been flat out, but are still keen and will contact you after the season is over.

rungsp, at the moment, they open at 6.45am, skiing finishes at 1pm. After 18th Aug, it's 7.45am-2pm.
Let us know how you get on, I'm keen to try Saas Fee next summer from the Anniviers.

rungsp, we will be in Saas Fee for part of next week and my daughter wants to try the skiing. Apparently the temperatures have been high lately and the glacier is suffering. I think it is raining today and the slopes are closed, but the temperature has dropped and hopefully there will be some new snow up at 3500m for next week.

rungsp, I do not know how much you are interested in this:

Whoever agrees to have their picture taken in a bikini (or bathing trunks) on the glacier at 3,500 metres above sea level, is a winner in three different ways: she or he has a free ride in the Metro up to the cool ice fields. She or he participates in a contest and stands to win an attractive prize. She or he flees the heat in the lowland areas.
It's very easy! You take the Metro up to the Allalin and have your picture taken in front of the Allalinhorn, in a bikini or in bathing trunks. You then send the photo, with your name and address, to the Tourist Office in Saas-Fee. The cost of the ride up to the Allalin will be refunded. And now for the best part: a jury will award prizes to the most attractive, funniest or most original photos. Win a weekend for two in the Saas Valley, or one-day tickets for the Saas-Fee ski area.
The bikini contest ends on 20th August 2006. So, off you go and please smile. |
