Skiing Sonnenberg 26/12/09

had a mixed bag of weather over the last 2 weeks, had some rain, some new snow, some sunshine and now some wind. Had about 6 cm new snow last night and it was windy. The loips were tracked this morning and are in good condition round most of the routes (few grassy bits). 2 of the three slopes are open but the snow is a bit hard having been packed by stong winds and has a few icy patches about but no real problems here in sonnenberg. St Andreasberg has 2 runs open and the Wurmberg in braunlage has the Kaffeehorst lift running.
More snow forcast for next week

hope to see you all soon

skiing sonnenberg 13/12/09

30 cm new snow fell on saturday with some colder temperature to help. The ground still isnt cold enough yet to allow a good base to form so the lifts are not yet open and the loips are not pisted. That hasnt stopped the people getting out and going for it anyway and so the people have cut their own tracks and its -5 ouside.
more snow is forcast for later in the week with temperature getting colder all week

first ski tour bagged this season downhill was …testing

Next week snow is forcast for tue night wed, thur, And friday also with low temperatures for a sustained period so keep your fingers crossed.
