Good news everyone. Yesterday's forecast snow has come through and delivered 15cm of fresh snow overnight. It's still falling fairly thickly even now so get out there!
Conditions will be soft and playful potentially for most of the day.
Looking on the forecast is predicting precipitation most days. This is unfortunately predicted to be rain on Sunday and Monday, however, I am not too worried as we have a return to snow on Monday night.
POWDER!
