Only it occurred to me that one could wear ordinary shoes to walk to the lift and then leave them at the bottom. There are ski lockers, of the rack type, but I don't think there are any actual closed-door ones. But what most people who want that sort of thing do is simply dump their ordinary shoes, usually in a bag of some sort, under one of the benches at the lower exit from Truebsee, or on the top floor next to the ski rack lockers at the top of the stairs. Never heard of anyone losing anything they've left there. Of course the exact layout of the lift stations is all changing now, as they've started construction on the new fast lift that goes all the way up to Stand. I note on some artists impressions that this also shows some new learner areas at Truebess, which will be very welcome for early season instruction. Contrary to the original plans, the new lift now seems to be starting from just next to the old one, as opposed to next to the railway station in the village. I guess the additional cost and impact of doing that simply to avoid a one-minute bus journey lost out to common sense in the end. |
