Sorry everyone. I missed a brilliant snow day report so here it is from 2 days ago, January the 6th...
Woke up early and pushed a path through the 35cm's of snow on the Snowball front lawn. Got very variable readings from 29cm to 43cm so am calling it 35 :) Not very scientific but it is the best I can do.
The snow fell initially with wind so it wasn't the most super fluffy light powder but it was totally lovely anyway. We roamed the mountain riding first tracks pretty well everywhere we went. Local knowledge goes a long way on a pow day!!!
The season total so far is now 305cm's. For just about anywhere else in the world this is huge but fort us this is really feeling like an average year so far. We also haven't had an overnight Magic Madarao Metre and for us powder pigs it doesn't really feel real until that happens. I need to be chest deep in the pow.
Temp was a lovely minus 5 pretty well all day and the wind stayed away and it was more or less blue sky with the odd cloud all day.
Spoiler alert... There will be another report coming today - January 8 as it has been snowing heavily all day.
Pic today is your's truly having more fun in the trees. You must all be sick of seeing me in pow day after day but this one was pretty with the sun lighting up the rooster tail. Sorry not sorry. Also looking at this photo it is kind of funny for me to complain abou the snow not being powdery enough...
