Updates are here in German of course:
http://www.wildschoenau.gv.at/system/web/default.aspx Talking about at least 3pm today, but trees keep falling so hard to say of course. I bet it's a tough old job. |

Dunno how here. But nothing much to see!! Just like errr......snow and that!
|

They will get it sorted, but apparently quick as they clear the trees - more fall. So they also need to clear the "dodgy" stuff anywhere near the road. Sounds like quite a game!!!

Thought you guys might be amused to hear that we are actually marooned in Niederau. Over 100 trees and avalanches blocked the main road since Saturday night. 5 power cuts so far. They are not even working on the road to Hopfgarten and all efforts going into getting the road to Wörgl open.....but awaiting more updates at 3pm.
Kids are missing school, and I am missing work.....but the powder skiing is good :-) |

Proper dump of snow overnight here. Just gonna haul my lazy arse into some ski pants and go boarding.
Still snowing but has calmed down a bit and visibility looks acceptable. |
|

To be fair Tony_H it ain't like this is the busiest forum in the universe......so hardly like the Niederau chatter is drowning out everything else!!!
People are free to start threads on any ski area, and you are free to ignore anything with the N word. So don't groan about the N posters......the issue that nobody comes to talk about other areas enough. |

Dunno what time the last bus runs, but I am sure they are sensible about it (can check when there).
Bars are kid friendly, but some probably better than others. There are two round bars at the bottom of the main Gondola. Schnapshütte is very child friendly (owners have kids), and the other round one is where people meet for the skischools....so also lots of family bods. In Oberau I have used THALER before and they seemed fine.....just on the way out of town in the direction of Niederau. |

Will report back again on Sunday!! Forecast looks OK.
