Headin out to pamps on the 8th of march (doin the snow dance while typin) and just lookin at the piste layout. seems to be a lack of blue or has this changed? 900m 1 blue is all that it shows and bar one long green and one long red there aint too many other slopes? Does this sound right? Im a blue now at min i recon....Doh!
Also is there no lifts bigger than the chair lift? seems like der all chair lifts and no big carriages for want of a better word.....
Still cant wait ...
Hi,
Headin out to pamps on the 8th of march (doin the snow dance while typin) and just lookin at the piste layout. seems to be a lack of blue or has this changed? 900m 1 blue is all that it shows and bar one long green and one long red there aint too many other slopes?

There are 2 blue runs one with the t bar lift and one on the south side with the dodgy drag lift which is mainly used by snowboarders.....there are quite a few red runs and a couple of them are in my opinion easier than the blue with the t bar which is pretty steep near the bottom. You should be absolutely fine.
Some of the red runs are partly blue. The lifts vary - there are big 4 and 3 man chairs, also a couple of two seaters and a one seater. In addition there are some drag lifts, button lifts and t-bars. It's possible to just use the bigger lifts if you're not keen on the others
I agree that the blue with the t-bar is harder than the red that's off to the right of he 4 man chair... that blue gets really steep at the bottom although it is nice and wide to comensate.
There are small sections of blue runs that leave the green and join the green after reds etc... there'll be pleanty to keep you going.
oh and the red that is marked top-bottom on the right hand side of piste maps is actually re-black-red according to maps in resort!
You'll have great fun though ...

just hit any of the very few ski runs in the resort.all willbe checked within a hour and then you will find your perfect little spot where you will be having fun all the way to the end of your holiday .
The back blue (as it is known) is a great confidence builder. Off the 3 man chairlift, go forward 25 yds then off to your right. The button lift there is gentle and easy to complete.
Used a lot by ski schools but rarely is it over crowded.
