Does anyone know where i can get hold of a arm band map holder,I have seen people wearing them on occasions and really want one myself.What im looking for is a clear plastic fronted unit that is elasticated and will locate on the upper arm.Something that i can make notes of lift closing times,Glance at my planned route for the day etc etc
Regards Mark

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Topsmoke, Dunno where you can get one, but I notice that our instructors also slid a watch face in theirs so that they could easily get the time without needing to burrow under a glove cuff for it as I had to - it might be another useful addition if you get one.

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

I have one lurking in the cupboard somewhere - I got it ina ski resort where you were required to have your photo id pass visible at all times. I *think* it was montgenevre back in around 2001 but I'm not 100% certain

How about a Zip-lock bag? Would that work?
Another source might be a canoe shop. They have plastic waterproof map case of different sizes.

Now Megamum: what a brilliant idea - have your watch outside you outfit - why didn't i think of that?
Why not! I too hate that fumble to find the time.
Presumably many modern digitals will pack up in the cold due to battery problems.
Anyone know of a big watch with big display to wear outside your jacket?
As for Map Holder Topsmoke. Not managed to find just what you wanted, but some of these may do.

Topsmoke,
We also have one of the "old style" ID holder armbands like nbt . We needed something in our Jan trip for Master Bungle's ski pass that we could attach inside his large front pocket as his new ski jacket has no lift pass pocket. The holder is double the size of the credit card style ski pass so may be big enough for what you want. We got it from the ski hire place where they were being sold for 1 Euro - although he couldn't be bothered to open his till so he just gave it to us  .
Might be worth having a look in a couple of ski hire shops.
