Snow in Passo Tonale?

I'm off to Passo Tonale next week. Does anyone have know what the snow's like? According to all the reports there's been light dusting but nothing amazing - is it good skiing?

Thanks!

Hi Mark

Went to PT last year and skiing is fantastic. Going again on 2th Jan and, like you hoping for decent snow. Contacted my travel agent today who made enquiries and found out there is sufficient snow, although I don't think there is as much as last year. Where are you staying? We stayed at the Sport Vittoria and there is a fab leisure complex there to relax in. Hope you have a good time.

We're in the Cielo Blu. It's our second time skiing so hoping the ski school is good :)

well there definitely isn't as much as last year, check out the webcams on the passo tonale site

Can anyones tell me is Passo Tonale the best option for snow flying into Bergamo?

Went over Christmas and skied every day.
Lower slopes were open but it was old snow was a bit thin in places. Snow machines were being used on lower slopes.
Some of the higher reds and blacks were closed.
