Well a light dusting of snow fell overnight and it continued for most of the morning. Donna and I decided that it looked way too cold and windy, and the top lifts were closed, so we had a bit of a rest, read some ski magazines and caught up on some bits and pieces.

After lunch we hit the slopes for a few hours. We did a couple of familiar runs before heading a bit further up the mountain to scout out another few runs. When we got on this lift we soon realised that we were heading into a cloud as the visibility start getting less and less. When we got to the top of the lift and we could barely see more than 50 meters and I hadn’t checked out this run before, so I just lead Donna blindly down the hill. The run was quite nice, and because Donna couldn’t see how steep it was she didn’t get scared and skied really well. After that it was starting to get cold so we headed home.
