Sorry about yesterday - a little glitch on my side (an iPhone that refused to send, while on a break from having too much fun in a lot of new snow). The report was written though, it just didn't 'go' unfortunately.


Anyway after a nice, sunny Friday, the snow really turned on yesterday, with -- what should we say? 50cm? 70cm? I was skiing in it, so I'm allowed some hyperbole.


A lot.


Then the stars came out last night, lulling some into thoughts of another sunny day - but no!


Another 30 cm or so again today. To say that snow conditions will be excellent today would be an understatement.
