Nice weather yesterday. We did get a bit of snow in the evening, but it didn't amount to much.
It's a fine start to this Sunday morning with some thin cloud but blue sky and sunshine. Nice and bright. It may get more cloudy later on, but generally fine weather expected.
I am hearing that more tree run courses might (possibly) open this morning, but that will be after safety checks --- not confirmed.
Feels like we could do with a fresh delivery of Geto-like snowfall. Forecasts point to that happening from the middle of the week.

All main courses are open, apart from B2
5 tree run courses open: Heart, Shooter, Alta, Garden, Summit, Beech, Stream and Rabbit
