Well, the promised 12cms came overnight but unfortunately with it the fog. Still, can't complain as the slopes are lovely.
Viz is naturally better lower down which is also less crowded. That said, there really is no sense of too many people yet, however, the buses are coming in.
Tomorrow morning should be clear but then getting cloudy again so get an early start.
