Good morning.


You want another 0.5m of fresh snow? We got it!


Tons of snow the last few days and all of a sudden the official snow depth numbers are up too.


Excellent. And little need for extra words.


Bit windy still but once things calm down and the sun comes out - perhaps tomorrow? - this is going to be simply great.


Official snow depth (as reported by resort):


Upper: 140cm

Lower: 80cm


Courses & Tree Runs:


A1 - A4 courses plan to be open, maybe more depending on safety and conditions.
