I hope you have a wonderful weekend, and fingers crossed that the run down to Trockener Steg is open for you :D

You are still a git though :P

I'm not sure if it will be to be honest, but Zermatt does start operating more lifts this weekend, and Cervinia is running also for this and two weekends before it opens proper. Been 20 cm of snow in the last 24 hours or so, at least it will put some icing on the glacier.

The view at the top of the KM is so very tempting. I lost a test ski (faulty brakes) up there last year. I watched it head off into the pow. I let it go, there was no way I would step beyond the rope with 1 ski on, the crevasses are rather deep!

I hope the lift co. don't groom all the new pow, soft and fluffy is so much nicer :D

The loose ski made it's own way back to the piste area, and was handed in at the test centre.

One of the most tempting sights I've seen is the glacier fields falling from the Jungfraujoch miles and miles of relatively shallow white. Quite a fe big blue and black holes mind ;)

sitting in the Brown Cow, just had a Burger and a couple of Weissbier, gonna give Marco's musical entertainment a blast at Grampi's in a moment. Note to Pabs, he must play every night of the soddin' year!

Hopefully, by now (8.32am), Tino will be riding the gondola up to Furi :D

With luck we should get a slope conditions, weather and beer quality update later :D

Update from The Kleine Matterhorn.

Piste Quality: hard pack with 15-20cm ungroomed new snow.
Weather: clear first thing, thick cloud now with intermittent snow showers.
Beer: tell you in 20 minutes

Very busy up here, but worth it, tiring on a snowboard when only drag lifts are open. Lots of ski teams up here and some quite funky stuff going on in the snow park.

Sitting having a beer at 3823m, or 12535ft and I can feel the altitude, and last nights beer :)
