Ahhh late March, don't you just love it (....when it gives us snow!)
According to the trusty resort folk, some upper areas of the mountain have been on the receiving end of up to 50cm of snow in the last day! Just think how warm it was last week and then re-read that. Mad.
Still a decent amount lower on the mountain as well giving us a refresh we can only have hoped for.
The sun will be back with us by tomorrow so we need to make the most of these fresh conditions while they last. Expect it to warm up by the weekend.
