The only thing you need to know this morning is BLUEBIRD. We have perfect deep blue skies, no wind and the trees and slopes have a fresh layer of snow. The whole resort has been perfectly groomed so it will be a day to take out the carvers and get the edges gripping down the corduroy. As always, along with the clear skies comes very cold temperatures, so dress warmly throw the camera in the pocket and enjoy a perfect morning.
