Were they using the snow cannons when they good?

Glad you had good time, cheers Smile

Rob the temps at the top of the gondola on Friday was minus 10 and saturday at the resort it was minus 5. The gondola was open all week only problem was very foggy at the top of the gondola for two days. Enjoying myself to much to notice if they where using snow cannons. hope this helps
