It was a super cold start to the morning at -17c but has started to warm up to a reasonable temp. It is a mostly clear day at the moment with plenty of blue sky and sun.


There is 5cm of new snow since the last report. The good news is that the Downhill Swift chair is now operating which has reduced queues for the Ropeway.


The slopes are in very nice condition with all the recent fresh powder. The next snow should arrive late afternoon.
