Blue skies, little to no wind. Lovely!!

Eastern aspects open on Cairnwell that had caught the most snow were really good. Race tracks great cover and the Tiger was skiable with some hard icy bits at the top but opening out in the middle and bottom into lovely soft wind blown snow.

Broken cloud/Largely very sunny with blue skies. Temps hovering around -2C at car park level. Stunning views all day, brilliant visibility.

Only skied 3 of 6 available pistes (6 including plastic/dink dink) and the far Race Track and Plastic was top to bottom complete with almost perfect on-piste snow; hard but not icy. It was the same story on Claybokie and the near race track though these were thinner in places. Off piste was generally very hard un uneven. Some powder stashes here and there though, especially allong side of snow fencing. Sunnyside and beyond requires further snowfall before opening. The team were preparing Butcharts Access Poma for opening on Sunday, pistes appear largely complete and freshly groomed.

Overall a brilliant start to the season, what we have is a good base for further snowfall.

Clear Blue Skies, Very little wind (other than at the top of Cairnwell), Cold all day (No exact figures)

All open pistes were complete and in good shape with the exeption of Claybokie which was pisted to 1 width and thin to the left. Red Race Track was run of the day, with some lovely pow pow to the right of the piste.

Dink-Dink, Plastic, Claybokie & Cairnwell Lifts Open.

Below freezing all day. Overcast with some brightness, wind not as bad as forecast?

Staggering ammounts of snow in a week. Engines house not actually buried but not far off. President's is loaded, with snow fences only showing tops in places.
Channels dug into snow to give clearance below the wire for peeople on the way up and for returning hangers. Canyon to Powder Room allows use. Sterling effort by all the diggers.
Usual early season teething troubles (derailing, top bull wheel) lost some lift time but generally an excellent powder day.

perfect weather, no wind, freezing at all levels, blue skies with only small amounts of cloud

obvious wind affected areas of the mountain, as expected, open cairnwell side had good packed conditions for what was open, off piste in these areas was patchy but still very enjoyable without scratching you base, looks like butchards will make an appearance tomorrow
