Once again I'm in awe of your work!
(Some winter tyres may be a good investment, or at least some chains )

THURSDAY 07 JANUARY 2021
Day 10 for the 2020/21 Winter Season in the Brecon Beacons National Park
Day 10 and it was a 10!
The stars aligned and the Weather Gods were benevolent, smiling down on Chris (@chrismorrismighty) & me
I’ve presented the images in chronological order across multiple posts as the day unfolded
So please scroll through the images in each post to get a sense of a very special day skiing in Wales
We walked and skinned up under moonlight, the snow covered slopes illuminated and reflected in the calm waters of Llyn y Fan Fawr
Intricate ice patterns consumed the rocks and fence line as the ‘Dragon’s Breath’ mist swirled in the hollows of the valley below
The rising sun turned the mist and clouds to candy floss colouring the snow in ethereal pink alpenglow

Wow...
The learning point from that is that one little patch not sliding when everything around it was lethal.
(And the same thing vice versa...)

Yahoo, that was a huge region of unstable snow. Thanks for the video. I wish I spoke French so I could understand the banter. Basically I think it was "Fuck that's big"

Föhn wind blowing has halved the snowpack in The Valley in the last 24 hours... let’s hope temps drop again and more snow comes our way. Last week was amazing and I want more of it!!!
Tomorrow looks like a good day to relax and watch the Kitzbühel race.

Jesus, 3 more deaths this weekend in Valais alone! (2 guides!)
I'm not superstitious but it seems like there's some seriously bad Juju around at the moment...
Stay Safe Everyone.

Had some good skiing this week. The last systems have given us a good base so hopefully we can get some consolidation and stability followed by refreshes!
