Good morning from Geto.
7cm more fresh snow to report from base since my last report. It was snowing for much of the day yesterday and early morning it is still snowing but lightly. Nothing significant.
Less of a wind this morning too which is good for the start of the weekend. The forecast for the day today is cloudy with the chance of light snow; cloudy skies due tomorrow after some likely snowfall tonight.
Sounds good to me!
As far as I can tell, today A1-A5 should be open. Tree run courses are not yet open. The snow on the open courses is pretty good quality though so fun to be had.
For the moment just the Gondola lift is operating.
Official snow depth (as reported by resort):
Upper: 190cm
Lower: 90cm
Courses & Tree Runs:
A1 - A5 courses plan to be open, maybe more depending on safety and conditions.
Tree runs not yet open
