Boom : Heavy wet snow cross-loading gullies on SW'erly Atlantic storm.

Perfect conditions for filling the upper mountain and forecast to continue for most of the week. This is what winter should be like! Most snow we have had all winter...

"Now I need to go take the storage wax off the skis! "

What? Like. We usually just scrape the mud off from last year, a good squirt of WD40 and we're good to go.

Coe webcams look interesting this morning. Is that overnight rain run off?

Rain runoff, point realeases and new windslab! Pisting team reporting considerable overall gain on the upper mountain.

Today off, due to winds. That's a real shame. It's looking loaded up there, from the webcams.

Looks like the slopes are getting a absolute dumping today! Little wind and heavy snow.
