Morning from Geto.


A bit more snow from yesterday but this morning the sun is out and it's mostly blue skies with a few clouds up there. Looks like it will be a fine day.


And tomorrow it's fine and cloud too.


Fresh snow delivery is due from Tuesday onwards and it's looking very promising. Quite possibly a run of days with a lot of snow in each of them. Yes, please.


Geto remains open as it has been. We need more snow for the tree run courses to be open but in the meantime there's plenty of fun to be had out there.
