It’s a bit wet up there………..

Rain and high winds closed the top lifts in Verbier today. Snow was falling above Ruinettes quite thickly at times but high temperatures made the fall a bit wet. Those brave enough to venture up came down a bit damper for the experience. Still any new snow is a welcome event!

Restaurants down in the resort were busy at lunch catering to those deciding, perhaps wisely, to have a day off skiing and wait for better conditions tomorrow. Fingers crossed for a good overnight snowfall although many forecasts predict warm winds coming in to give rain up to 3000m.
Resort staff day off yesterday saw many chalet hosts hitting the slopes for free lessons with some of the ski schools. Snowboarding is particularly popular with seasonaires although some skills still require improvement – see video below

Pub Mont Fort just above Medran is as popular as ever with the immediate après ski crowd and was busy yesterday with stories of exploits on the mountain.

The forecast for tomorrow is for more snow, temperatures and wind speeds to drop off.

Chivalry at apres !!!!!
