Skiing Sunday 11th December

The Weardale Ski Club Ltd

We had a good day skiing today though the snow did deteriorate as they day went on and by end of play there were quite a few bare patches but a good base and the towlines are now very well compacted. If we get the predicted snow overnight then conditions could be good but if we get no snow then it won't be worth opening on Sunday. Best advice is to look at the webcam at 830am or ring the answerphone in the morning for the latest advice. The road was ok today though some icy patches at the top which were a bit tricky. Having watched the following link about the value of winter tyres I suspect it would be a good investment for many of you who don't already have them - http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/products/total_tyre_guide/259444/summer_continental_contisportcontact_3.html

Living North have written an article on skiing in Weardale in their January edition which is out now and has 5 pages about us and the other ski clubs in the North of England including some great photos from James Cummings and others. It will grace any coffee table and you can proudly show all your frends what Weardale Ski Club is like. Sadly today was a more typical Weardale skiing day but you don't have to tell them that!

The owner of the Guess watch has been found much to his relief as it was a pressie from his wife!! A pair of goggles was lost today by Lyn, so if anyone has found them please let me know.

Not sure why my writing went blue??
