Ah, I see why Deano posted this on Flickr! I took a stab at Knaresborough over there before seeing this thread.

Mal still guessed before me, so it's his go unless we're both wrong.

Here's one for the skiers:

<edit>

Might be a bit specialist so here's a clue:

The train leads to the top of this ski run:

Mine was Knaresborough, as you all knew anyway.

OK, so it wasn't that hard! Correct.

Bonus point for the piste?

Wow! A funicular ski-jump!

hatler · « **Reply #3683 on:** 11 March, 2011, 09:59:42 am »

Bugger. Can't remember. I spent a season there and all the piste names have long since been forgotten.

hatler · « **Reply #3684 on:** 11 March, 2011, 10:01:34 am »

OK. This indistinct enough for you ?

Amazing stabbing. Bingo !

Over to you.

andrew_s · « **Reply #3687 on:** 14 March, 2011, 10:25:57 pm »

I went to Walberswick in 1973, give or take a year or two.

Which pass?

No, the car wasn't there any more.

Iseran

is the correct answer

This was the first offering, which explains the "No, the car wasn't there any more" comment

Tewdric · « **Reply #3695 on:** 15 March, 2011, 03:17:18 pm »

Easy one:
