Hello Skiers & Boarders,
Well, well, well. Looks like we're starting to have a winter on our hands. Very enjoyable snow falling yesterday, wind blowing it around, cars off the road. All very wintery.
For the nitty gritty, it's a fairly heavy snow, so very packable. Perfect for a good base layer, and for snowballs and making snowmen.
And the BIG NEWS for today, is that TWO hours after opening today, the resort announced that the A2 run is now open, so skiing/riding down to the base is now possible. Properly long run. Lots of fun.
It's supposed to be +5 C tomorrow, so there will be a little damage to the white gold, but I'm guessing it'll hold pretty well.
Think snow.
