A nice day yesterday with the snow starting in the evening and this morning the resort is reporting 15-20cm of fresh snow on the slopes. I'd say up to 15cm or so at base area. Nice snow by the looks too, so conditions should be refreshed after yesterday which actually ended rather tracked out and hard in places. The busy conditions of course didn't help, so the early people today should be rewarded. It's about -6 degrees at the moment and snow falling, poor visibility out on the mountain. If it's still there, I can't see it! Good snowfall now though and so hopefully we'll be getting a decent amount fall today.
