Well, I wasn't expecting this.


Around 30cm of snow this morning with the ski area itself saying there's 45cm on the upper areas of the mountain! I suppose for Geto that is kind of 'light'. ;)


So yes we got snow yesterday and there has been light snow falling this morning but it should be clearing up this morning. It should be a good morning.


Tomorrow the forecast (as it is now) is for a fine start but some rain turning into snow later on, with a snowy Sunday probably.


Courses open:

All normal courses open.

Planned tree run courses: all (subject to inspection and conditions and lift access)


Lifts operating (subject to change):
