Good morning from Naeba everybody.


Thanks to all the new snow yesterday we have some lovely soft, smooth groomers out there this morning. Conditions should be ideal for carving it up today.


It will also get relatively warm today probably rising above freezing by midday.


For tonight we are expecting a little snow again with rain tomorrow morning then turning into snow. Hopefully the rain will pass us over though.


Smashing!
