Mike :roll:

looks very nice. I wish the European webcams were this good quality at 10.30 at night :!:

freezywater,

MSA may add an additional camera or two to this set further into the season. At least they are skiing there now :!:.

In Nova Scotia, we will be lucky to be skiing by January. Here is the link to Ski Martock camera,- where most of my skiing takes place. This shows a small section of one run,"Expressway", - but they are ready for when the cold air strikes :!:!! http://www.martock.com/webcam.php

And this link is for Ski Wentworth - about 9o minutes from my home:

Blimey :!: :!:

I don't know why but I just assumed (mother of all f**k ups - I know!!) that being in Nova Scotia you would be blessed with snow sooner than this as it sits on a similar line to the Alps. Still you fare better than us Brits, 1/2 an inch and you'd think the world had ground to a halt :lol:

Our problem, freezywater, is that we assume too much; and it is through sites like this we learn the unexpected.

Last year our first snow was about the second week of December. It fouled up suppertime traffic because they didn't have the plows ready. Imagine that ... December and the plows weren't ready :cry:

That snow lasted a few days ... but that didn't matter as it was cold enough and Martock was making snow like crazy. Our first ski day was about Dec 23 even though they had opened the hill around the 10th with 1 trail ready. We know what that meant. Danger ... everyone keen to get going and everyone out of shape and no place for anyone to go. By new Year's Day they had about 2.5 trails open. Very little snow all winter but we were colder than normal. The man made snow was really good thanks to their new and improoved snow making equipment. The plus side was that there were no dangerous icy roads to prevent getting to the hill. The minus side (for the hill's owners) was without snow in the city people thought there was no snow at the hill - and the crowds failed to materialize. However, the plus side to that, for those that took the drive, was the reward of wide open spaces and almost no lift lines ... and really great conditions all winter. Into early March you would still meet people on the lift who were there that day for their first day of their season :!:

Oh, just can't wait - they will have the guns going soon.

Pavel should "post" a picture of a cannon at "his" local hill ... now that thing makes snow :!: I want one for my back yard.

Mike :wink:
