ultrasound inconclusive; son still not hungry; indeterminacy sucks.
Appendicitis gives a pretty obvious pressure-sensitive symptom, if my Holiday Inn E(R)xpress memories hold.Quote:

So.. it is getting close... I hope we'll be able to make everybody happy!!!!
You guys might be veeeery lucky... it is still a bit early to be sure, but this week end we should get a ton of freshis up in the alpine and a bit of rain here in the valley, but after that it should be snowing and stay a bit colder....
Said that so far I have received skitikets for:
- Bruce
- Scott
- Dixon
-Aaron,
as I keep getting them I'll post it here.
I confirm a day trip to Engadin on the 20th, I need to know approximately how many would partecipate, this way I can get a proper quote.
Please contact me by mail at: info@mt-lodge.com or by phone +41819365000.
Im arriving on the 20th and leaving on 24th. Half day skiing on the arrival and depart days. Likely only skiing disentis and andermatt. Which pass should i get? (link please)

He has that on the push in, but on release, he doesn't react like most appendicitis patients. Normally the release is more painful according to our doc.Quote:

About how long does it take from order to show up at venduls? I’m arriving on the night of 14th and wondering if I’m too late.
Mine showed up in 2 days.Quote:

I'm just bringing one cause it's the right thing to do. Should be arriving today. Size L which I believe fits a bit larger than that. My planned mechanism is Vendul gets first dibs if he wants it for hosting our asses, if he doesn't then whoever has the best headband game or drinks the largest amount of amaro.Quote:

SnowAssist doesn't cover off piste adventure. Rega seems to be $30 annual contribution - does this cover you well?
Anyone have decisive beta and pulled the trigger yet?
I've got AAC coverage to start, then a program via Garmin that is very inexpensive if you're carrying an inReach. Thinking I may add Rega on top since its 30 or 40 bucks?
Mind summarizing the Garmin dealio? I have one as well.Quote:

Get rega. It covers heli rescue anywhere in Switz. There is also Air Glaciers which is based in the valais, but the two rescue orgs are complementary. They cover for each other, doesn't matter who picks you up.Quote:

I’ll get Rega. If you come to the Arena pre BBI we’ll have some skiers assembled. Let’s roll!Quote:

I would expect one down towards the Dieni gondola which appears to be the closest place to Vendul's to access the Sedrun - Andermatt lift system (and from which it appears you can ski, lift-served, all the way to Andermatt). I'll email Vendul, but, if anyone has any on the ground familiarity, let me know.Quote:

THE INFO I GOT FROM THE SKIARENA WORKER WAS ACTUALLY WRONG ( IT IS SO IF YOU BUY IT AT THE COUNTER, BUT NOT THROUGH TICKETCORNER)
I'VE CONTACTED TICKETCORNER AND THEY SEE WHAT THEY CAN DO!!!!! NOW I'LL GET THE SKIARENA TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT
THEY SAID THAT YOU CAN CONTACT TICKET CORNER CANCEL YOUR ORDER AND PLACE A NEW ONE BUT I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S CONVENIENT.... I'LL SEE IF THERE'S ANYTHING ALSE I CAN DO
i have an extra set of piste skis - head 177s bsl 349 (i think can be adjusted). otherwise i can check around for a spare set.Quote:
