1st snow report of the season

The Weardale Ski Club Ltd

Hi everyone and welcome to all the new members to the first snow alert of the season. If you have been looking at the webcams you will note that we have had a covering of snow over the last 24 hours with more predicted this week. Unfortunately very strong winds are also predicted, especially for Wednesday which means that even if the snow is good enough to ski the wind will probably prevent us from opening. It is however a very promising start and the forecast is for the cold weather to hang around for a while so keep an eye on the webcam and weather forecasts.

For those of you who have not rejoined I am afraid membership is now full though we will take day members on weekdays (other than bank holidays) but please remember weekends are strictly for members only. If you do plan to visit midweek, please check we are open before travelling and check the answerphone for road conditions (chains sometimes needed). Please book your day passes via the online booking system on the website (www.skiweardale.com) and present the printout to a tow operator when you arrive before skiing - we are pretty obvious with bright orange jackets with Tow Operator on the back! Here's hoping for a great season.

For those of you interested the new Warren Miller film is being shown at both Durham Gala and Newcastle Tyneside theatre this Thursday 11 December - http://warrenmiller.co.uk/tickets
