Good morning from Naeba.
What a surprise this morning!
We were told to expect maybe about 10cm but just measured 30 cm of fresh snow. It’s not perfectly dry and light, but it should still make for some enjoyable off-piste riding.
The weather is cloudy with snowfall. Visibility is fair at the base but looks poor higher up.
It’s windy at higher elevations, with lighter winds at the bottom. Gondola No. 2 is spinning, so hopefully, it starts on schedule.
However, due to increasing winds, the Dragondola will be closed for the day.
