Well things are pretty miserable here, the big melt happened last thursday and there is no sign of any significant snow on the horizon although its been trying to snow today.
We just have the Dink Dink and Claybokie going, Dink Dink is car park snow that we tractored in so your skis get well sanded on the way down really only suitable for first day beginners. Claybokie is patchey at the top with some soft snow moguls!!! and the last bit is manmade snow so its not too bad. Its keeping a few intrepide holiday makers happy.
On the casuality front few and far between; one stands out a 12 year old boy who hit a fence hurt his lower leg/knee and screamed the house down the whole time till the ambulance staff filled him with morphine. We tried entynox which actually knocked him out briefly which let us get the boots and trousers off but he didnt like it much. His mother was fantastic and kept calm through it all. Alan and I thought he had maybe #'d the tibial plateau but the the hospital could find nothing and thought he had torn ligaments or tendons.
Well hears praying for snow and looking forward to FIPS and loads of snow.
Cheers Kate
