Supposed to be new snow today but it didn't arrive.

Instead we have pesky blue skies and no wind along with a backcountry snowpack which was only ridden yesterday between 1pm and close of resort due to avalanche risk in the morning. It will be another good day but we'll need a reset at the end of it I expect.

Looks like snow on the forecast today and this evening and tomorrow but obviously the weather models are having some issues at the minute so we shall see.
