Verbier Video Report : 27th November 2011

A very bare mountain for the first day of the season

We haven't seen the usual snowfalls that kick off the season here in Verbier, or anywhere in the Alps for that matter. The snow cannons have been working hard and the little bit of natural snow that has come down has been preserved by the clear skies and cold temperatures up high. A few runs opened this weekend but the official area opening is not until the 3rd Dec. The snow that there is is not bad but we definitely need a good couple of dumps before we can enjoy all that Verbier has to offer.
