The good news is that it has been snowing continuously since early this morning. The snow is falling lightly but certainly has provided a respectable carpet of powder over the whole mountain. Clouds are hovering around both zones but apart from some areas of flat light visibility is still okay. Early morning temperatures were cold but rose quickly during the morning and are now sitting just on 0c at base level.
