The piste bashers were out several weeks ago to bed down the initial falls, so all this can only makes things better. It was reported last week that there was 1.5 m of snow at the top of the Gondola, before this dump, so things are looking soooooo good.
Take a look at some of the archive webcam shots from this time last year, it looks like May, with no snow at all. We then went in early Jan, and whilst it wasn't brilliant, we still skied all week.
