Yep!! You certainly need an avalanche parachute when you're riding the beginners lift at Smiggin Holes.
Work in the early hours before the crowds arrive. I'm going to have to send a junior staff member out to get the snow off my skidoo.
It's like role reversal England has turned into a dust bowl. Daft question but is it fluffy snow or that damp claggy stuff?
It also depends where on the resort we're skiing. There are places where we can still get windblown powder a week after a storm, however a lot of them are difficult to get to.
