An impressive Geto-like dump since yesterday - 70cm on upper areas. That was a result of it snowing all yesterday and overnight and heavy at times too.
Today we have cloud and snow at times on the forecasts. Wind might be an issue, but it might have a good effect on the snow in the tree run courses. (Three of which are currently open).
All lifts open and night skiing.
If you haven't had enough of the snow, there's more due tomorrow too.
