Such a nice day; so busy in the morning. All that blowing, accumulating snow was there sparkling in the early morning sunlight (and an early-morning ski lesson meant I didn't get my time at the desk). But here we go: you should have been out there in the cold, sunny, wonderfully nice snow. It really was a good one, with about 27cm of fresh falling around the base, on top of....what was it...something like 80cm recently? It's hard to tell, as our maritime snow settles fairly quickly, but it's still nice powder when and right after it falls.
Looks like a little more snow tomorrow, then the freezing line moves up the mountain, meaning we might have some rain, at least lower down, in the weekend.
