:: Weather Conditions
Started off misty from mid station up but this quickly cleared to above the summit giving broken cloud and sunshine. Showers of hail and snow passed through in the afternoon but nothing significant. Light rain at mid station but over all a very good day. Possibly a bit warm for full winter gear but it was needed during the snow flurries.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Upper bowls, traverse, 105 and Cas have excellent cover with good fast spring snow. Gun barrel is good but thin at the bottom. By the end of the afternoon the lower runs were getting a bit heavy with the off piste sticky. Coronation wall was great in the morning but did slow down as the day went on. For those touring the back of the mountain has extensive snow cover and excellent skiing. Ciste fairway is thin and officially closed but the bowls are very good still.
