Good morning skiers & boarders,
Well, it's a-blowin' and a-snowin' out there. Then it stops for a bit, and it's pretty nice out. With all the wind, almost impossible to gauge how much snow actually fell, but 5 cm seems about right for now. The resort is reporting about 10 cm on top. Forecast calls for wind/snow all day today, so we might get some more.
Given the weather conditions, the resort has preemptively notified that any lift may be closed due to weather conditions. You pays your money, you takes your chances.
Think snow.
