Yes we can. Like I wrote on my original post:

Here is the announcement and site guidelines.

Awesome work, SBA!

Years ago, I wanted to do the same thing with the color coding, based on skiing -- green/blue/black, with sub-ratings for launch/freefall/landing -- and you guys actually went out and did it.

This should serve as a model for other groups managing their own areas such as LB, and people in OZ/Canada/USA et al, trying to gain access via their respective park services.

Cool

Real quick note here that might help someone who is dumb like I was. When you call Air Glacier the telephone number begins with +41. For anyone who is confused how to dial that, you have to dial "0041" then the rest of the number. Maybe everyone in the world knows that.. but I didn't.Crazy

Not that it would have anything to do anything with the original post but I think both should work. The "+" sign has been implemented to the cell phones to automatically dial the international access code in the current country you are in. Some countries have different companies offering international exit codes with different rates and if you want to choose which one you use, you should use the actual exit code and not the plus sign.

https://en.wikipedia.org/...tional_call_prefixes

Many phones allow this "+" to be entered in their saved number lists, often by holding down the '0' key (most GSM mobile phones) or with two consecutive presses of the * key. When making a call the system then automatically converts the "+" to the correct international prefix, depending on where the phone is being used, which enables callers to use the same stored number from any country.
