Good morning and Happy Christmas!


It is sunny and mild this morning, calm with almost no wind.


27cm of snow from yesterday, so conditions should be really great this morning.


Beautiful.


Dragondola and top summit lift still closed this morning... as they deal with snow and avalanche risk up there. Still, plenty of areas open and some fine conditions to enjoy.
