The average snow depth is still over 125cm. The skiing continues to be very good with great grooming in the mornings and soft off-piste in the afternoons.
The lift co and resort management are even offering a Midweek Magic discount with Tue,-Wed-Thur lift and/or parking for the price of 2 days.
There are still vacancies at the lodge, so check out the booking system and make the best of this September.
Race Week culminated with a glorious Race Day on Saturday 3rd August. Such a contrast to the previous 2 years!
The evening was topped off with a theme of White/Lunar to coincide with 50 years of Man on the Moon. Fabulous costumes & plenty of Astronauts made an appearance too.
