It has been a slow start to the season, but the snow is finally here!!!
After 2 weeks of freezing cold arctic conditions bringing operations at the hill to a stand still, we're finally up and running and the lodge is literally bursting at the seams with happy smiley guests!
Whitewater has recieved 83cms of the white fluffy stuff in the past 3 days, bringing the base at the top of Summit to 190cms.
The riding conditions yesterday were insane. I probably rode the best snow (in bounds) in all my time here yesterday. It was cacking large yesterday, resulting in never riding the same line twice, because as soon as your shredded it, it was all covered back up again... NICE!!! Too top it all off, another 25cm's fell last night leaving freshies everywhere.
All this snow is well and good, but the Avalanche risk is huge at the moment. Due to the slow start to the season there is barley any base. Just lots and lots of dry fluffy snow waiting to release at any second. Safety measures are in place, with many runs closed off until conditions improve. Ymir Bowl will release soon, it's just a matter of waiting for it to happen now....
Stay safe guys & gals... Dani x
