Snow on the ground!
Time to get out the snow clearing equipment one more time. And everything is all nice and white again, with a blue sky to make it just that much nicer looking (and fluffy clouds for contrast). OK, that's a bit much, but it is nice out there, it was colder overnight and it's nice to have some extra snow to top of the supply.
Offpiste, there is a chance that this new, fresh, pretty cohesive and compressible snow could be a bit slide-y on steep slopes. Just take a little caution and check it out before you drop in (with the usual caution on narrow valleys, etc.).
On piste it should be great, at least until the sun warms it up and things get a little sticky. Hey, it's better than rain!
