Posted on Tuesday 28th December 2021 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.
Another foot-plus day of fresh out there (for those who can think in Imperial numbers, which I hardly can any more). It's still coming down steadily; not particularly heavy at the moment, but enough that we'll have a few more centimeters by lunchtime. Tomorrow looks like one day off, then it turns on again for the foreseeable future. Meaning excellent holiday snow conditions. There's still a lot of brush out there beyond the ski area boundaries, but if anyone were to go out, it's good to be pretty careful; there's a lot of unconsolidated snow out there and sluffs could happen really easily. Nasty if you happen to be in a narrow valley, for instance.
I notice that several of the areas have suddenly bumped up their snowpack figures. Maybe too busy yesterday digging to check! I thought things were a little sparse, numbers-wise. Looks better now!
