20 cm of new snow has fallen in the  last 12 hours. It was dumping last night! I still felt icy at the bottom yesterday, maybe anymore today. It seems calm this morning but the forecast shows that it will be windy today. The avalanche report said that avalanche risk is high today. Top gates are closed for our safety. Enjoy the powder inside the resort:)

More snow is falling tonight, might be the last fall of this big set. Have a nice day!!
