Dolomites, Santa Cristina.

We're traveling there March 2014 to do some spring time skiing. We were thinking of spending 2 weeks there staying in one location, I'm not sure if this is enough time or too much time to spend in this area to ski. I'm not sure how large of an area this is. We're use to skiing in Colorado and not sure how they compare size wise. Any help would be great.

We are very familiar with the area, the Val Gardena is the name of the great area, in summer. We tend to prefer Ortisei, but any of the little towns will offer access to gondolas and lifts up and down the valley. As to skiing, the possibilities seem as endless as they are for hiking. You will find good maps and info here. You can also easily reach the Alpe di Siusi, Alta Pusteria and Val di Fassa for different venues while staying in the Val Gardena.

FYI, you can do this without a car.
