Saturday 24th, 5.08, +0.1dg, a little dusting settled overnight but roads clear, forecasting fog and snow here and on the mountain a moderate fall of snow, heaviest on Sun afternoon. Temperatures will be below freezing (max -4°C on Sat morning, min -9°C on Sun night). Wind will be generally light. With any luck, what was forecast for the mountain today will not eventuate and may just be an inversion which will give my guests at least one reasonable day on snow.Yesterday was just a regular Friday... people in, people out, and in amongst that finishing touches to the Dachboden for incoming guests fro Switzerland, watching Men's Super G on the Streif in Kitzbühel and then later the slalom leg of the alpine combined. I just loved the courage of the men travelling at such speed and executing perfect gymnastics, sometimes only one ski on snow, to maintain an upright position. Hand over face moments at times. Toady is the big one, the Men's Downhill. This will be a brilliant spectacle, but forecasting overcast and periodic flurries.... please don't lower the start...11.45am. Women racing in St Moritz so it will be a busy day being armchair critic. I do need to dash into Bludenz early early with the mini stereo system from the Dachboden as it has been damaged by the previous guests so need to get it into the Doctors. All in all, a simple day under grey skies with a bit of snow thrown down for good measure. Tomorrow sees the start of " Rock The Alps " the Olympic Torch arrived in Schruns yesterday.
