It wasn’t until a friend Simone on twitter stated about how it’d been snowing all night that I suddenly realised, I’ve not checked the weather reports for up north.

At 7am we manage to get petrol and start our journey north. Not too far into the trip and voila snow.   Wasn't long before we were within the range. On arrival around 9.15 we found that there was a problem with the Gondola and that updates were going to be announced hourly.  We went for a cuppa, got changed, started preparing for heading up and enjoying some white stuff.
