Overcast to start then bright spells developing as the morning went on. Temp at car park was 0c. Breeze light.

Tow uptrack still in good condition. Some wind scraped areas along with pockets of fresh dry powder. Plenty of wide runs and the snow has been well maintained and managed.

Myself. Probably around another 30-40 skiers/riders on the hill.

Freezing cold fresh easterly wind moderating slightly in the afternoon. Very good visibility, long sunny spells. Strong sun ! freezing level 500m.

Really good cover and some superb pisting meant virtually all runs open despite the big drifts and scouring of some areas. powder gulley was superb. loads of choice and skiers finding all sorts of options and secret little routes.

130 skiers

Cold cold cold dry easterly wind. Humidity down below 30%. Overcast porro visibility in the morning but sunny in the afternoon. freezing level was below 600m all day.

Cold dry winter snow. Huge drifts over 3m deep at the summit but also some scoured areas. Also areas of sastrugi and some pockets of powder. All runs skiable although some thin places in some areas. Unusual distribution of snow and some drift patterns i have never seen before. theer are two half pipes at the very top ! The bowl is very good. An excellent day.

Excellent Cover

Broken cloud throughtout the day with more sunny spells in the morning, with a cold strong head wind when you walked up from the roadside to the tow. All will worth it !

You could ski anywhere from the top of the lift, left to right with wind packed powder, fresh blown powder, the odd bit of ice sheets here and there and tufts of grass. The snow got more crusty as the day went on. With the depth of the drifts, the tow could possibly stay open for a fair few days once the drifts are bashed out. Not bad for late March.

Massive thank you to the staff for keeping the tow going all day in the cold wind.

The tows pull is not as bad as I thought
