Good morning from Naeba everybody.


Thanks to a small amount of fresh snow yesterday and exceedingly cold temperatures overnight conditions today are lovely. The groomers are in excellent condition so get out there and lay down some arcs!


Looking ahead the weather forecast is predicting moderately heavy snow tonight, with light to moderate snow falling every day until Friday. Whilst I wouldn't predict any completely insane powder days this week, conditions should still be very nice.
