The forecast was very precise describing the weather yesterday and today. It started raining last night, and the rain got heavy overnight. Winds picked up early this morning and are very strong at the moment, keeping all lifts on wind hold at the moment. Winds should calm down in the afternoon so hopefully at least several lifts will open then.
It's my last report of the season today, and it's a shame we can't really enjoy the last day but it's been an outstandingly good season this year with a lot of powder (too much powder from time to time I'd say) so we are not complaining.
Thank you, Mother Nature!
We'll see you again in the run up to the 2013/2014 season. Have a good summer!
