Snow report Wed 10 April

The Weardale Ski Club Ltd

Another superb day today with lovely weather and fantastic snow still remaining. Although some of the lower runs are developing grassy patches which are easily negotiable, the run just east of F1 towline is perfect and all the upper runs are complete. The gully , Black scar and the runs to the east are still in great condition. With the warmer weather and the amount of snow there is a small avalanche risk at the top of the gully and top of Black scar so take care - must be one of the few avalanche risks ever at an English resort!

Due to a shortage of Tow Operators we will not be opening on Thursday but may possibly do so on Friday and the weekend if the conditions are suitable.

Found - A grey Jig Saw beanie has been found on the slopes - I currently have it if the owner wants to contact me.

Bruce Wilkinson has put a great video on You-tube of skiing Black scar which can be viewed on the WSC facebook site or on this link - http://youtu.be/1GZL7bkj6Po

Keep sending in the videos + photos please. Another great photo is from Robert Richardson of a snowboarder jumping over a car on the road just above the car park. This can be seen on the facebook site. The feat was reproduced by Will Davis today and hopefully I will get footage of that linked in the next day or so
