 Poster: A snowHead
|
Tickets and other realted things arrived today from our holiday company. Went through to verufy everything, noted two discrepancies so I called
Item 1, our two bed plus loft condo was referred to as a two bed condo despite us previously raising this point - they confirmed that it would indeed have the loft we requested.
point two - we have receipts for lift passes for everyone, despite asking for quotes without lift passes, as some people will not ski every day and others are off to try cat-skiing.
Tour operator (frontier ski, if you;re interested) confirmed that the lift passes were included in the price paid. That means our luxury holiday (circa 1k for scheduled flights, transfers and *nice* accomodation in Fernie for a fortnight) has suddenyl become the absolute bargain of the year. Not having to pay for lift passes means I won;t have to wonder how I'll be able to pay for the skis I just biought using an interest free credit card when the interest free bit runs out in siz months
Ohh, I'm grining like a cheshire cat!

This time we're staying in the River rock lodge. Last year we were in the Polar peak lodges which are closer to the hill, but were full this year: we only found out after we had more or less booked that our visit co-incides with the Fernie Freeskiing CHampionships so that was whay we couldn;t get availability for the whole of our stay - most places we efilled up for the 5 days of the comp
You can see pics of the place we had on my website, go to the "pics" directory then look for "road trip 2003", the obvious ones have "polar peak" or "fernie" in the name.
It was great to ski back to a beautiful house with loads of room, then sit in the hot tub on the verandah sipping ice cold beer (chilled in the snow) while people skied past us.

You lucky sod. I can see why you bought the Pocket Rockets now! Have you resolved the binding problem yet?
I'm off to look at the Frontier Ski website...

I've had the bindings re-drilled (BTW, I'm not taking part in the champs, although I might stop skiing to watch one or two riders) but the seller has mysteriously stopped responding to emails.
Luck has nowt to do with it, we've been plnning (and saving up, obviously) for this for a year now!
