Morning from Naeba.


It has been been dumping in Naeba. We got 38cm of new snow so far, and it keeps going.


There is low visibility and it's very windy higher up so only three lifts at the bottom are currently open: 4, high speed 4 and high speed 5. That might change depending on weather.


They have managed to dig out the jumps so snowpark line is soft and playful.
