It was windy and snowy more than I expected yesterday. Top lifts were closed all day yesterday, so hopefully it opens today. Snow is deep and a bit heavy. Control your speed well and try not to stop at flat. Avalanche risk is usually high after wind or snow storm. Please ready the avalanche report if you going out from the resort. Serious Avalanche accident happened at strictly off-limit area yesterday. Please remain that your family and friends always wait for you to come back home safely.
Sunshine is forecast and wind will be much less tomorrow.
