Geoff writes: we’d planned to go skiing today, though looking at the forecast this morning it seemed like it would be cloudy most of the day, and snowing by late afternoon. In the event, it was sunny all day, with some good cumulus development later in the afternoon. So we had a great day at Masella, made better by the fact that I picked up my skis from the repair shop, and, this time, they were perfect – which was a great relief. Fourth time lucky….

Being Friday, it was a bit crowded, with the beginners earlier in the week moving up to the higher slopes. But crowds are relative – the longest we had to queue for a lift was, literally, three minutes. More often than not, we got straight on. The snow was really nice to ski on, and sitting in the cafes when we had a break, it was warm in the sun.
