Theres this amazing thing called weather forecasting.....

I`d rather use a crystal ball,more reliable.

You have a point :lol:

Still, minus 34 at 2600m early March sounds interesting.

Interesting! Interesting! sounds bloody freezing to me. :mrgreen:

Snow Time wrote:With the funicular having problems at CGM I skied the Lecht today after the roads were finally opened at 11am. Conditions are very good although the wind has taken all of the snow from the ridge leave just ice. From about 15 metres off the top you are back into mainly squeaky (ish) snow.

Due to the clearing work in the morning the only runs open were Eagle, Grouse, Robin, Wren & the Magic Carpet. Later on Buzzard opened but was not pisted. The greens and blues were in good condition, although a little chewed up, but off piste from the Buzzard tow was excellent. Most of the fences are under snow giving a massive area to ski across with virtually no tracks or hazards. By 3:30pm you could ski straight onto the Buzzard poma - result!

I would have thought the fences under the snow would be a very real danger,obviously depending on depth of cover.
Perish the thought of motoring downhill & snagging some hidden fencing,sorry sounds a bit like saying its safe to sail over a sea mine field because they are underwater.

That and boarder cross were definitely as much fun as I have watched at any Olympics.

I must say I do love the ski jumping 8)

Doing it or watching :D

I think the latter might be the better choice :lol:

You know it makes sense )
