Remember how just 7 or 8 weeks ago, many of us were posting things such as:-

"getting the jitters" (by my good self)
"Its warm...."
"there is no snow"
"should I cancel"
etc etc

These were mainly filled with comments from Sir AndyHull (yes, I have knighted him)



I have been using a site for my snow reports for Val T. It is interesting to see that the graph half way down the page shows that the snow levels were HUGELY below historic levels....

Just take a look now. Historic levels are dotted, current levels are solid :shock:

I will upload the image when I get back....but in the meantime take a peek!

I'm already researching for next year as we fancy going to Canada, so been on a few of the TO sites - can't remember who, but one of them was saying it's the best snow for a generation. Now being a young lass myself (ha ha!) not sure how true that is, but friends of ours who live in L2A say it's the best it's been for many years - woohoo!! 3 weeks and counting!!
Up there for thinking, down there for skiing...
