Its looking certain we will have some snow but difficult to predict if will be enough to ski, especially as the very strong winds may prevent it lying evenly. Monday & Tuesday looking very doubtful but Wednesday is possible. Keep watching and snow fingers crossed.

No snow yet
Virtually no snow so no skiing today. Forecast for tonight less positive than it was. Will update tomorrow morning.
Snow Tomorrow & Tuesday
Its looking like we’ll have some snow tonight (Sunday) and tomorrow night and there is a reasonable chance that there will be enough to run the tows, if not tomorrow than better chance on Tuesday. Will update here and on Facebook as the snow falls.
Wet snow but not enough
Happy New Year and the first tempting of snow has arrived. Unfortunately it is not very deep, it’s far to wet to ski on and its already turning to rain. But at least the field has been white for a while. Hopefully more in the near future.
Too little snow
There hasn’t been enough snow overnight to make conditions skiable. Probably a covering but too thin & temperature not below freezing so would be soft ground under the snow.
Possible snow & tows tomorrow
The forecast is for some snow tonight so there is a chance that there will be just enough to ski tomorrow. We won’t know until the morning so will send out a further update after about 9.00am.
Snow this weekend?
Slight chance of enough snow this weekend. Will update Saturday or Sunday.

£25 to ski all winter – join now!
Reminder for anyone who hasn’t yet re-joined, that the reduced rate membership for this winter season will end in a just over a week’s time on 30th November. It’s well worth re-joining now as you will save £10 for a single person (that’s only £25 rather than £35) and save £20 for a family – £50 rather than £70.
Given the probability that we’ll get plenty of snow again this year – we’ve had 5 or more days skiing in 8 out of the last 10 years – it’s well worth taking advantage of these cheap rates and be ready for the snow when it arrives.
