Just had a couple of splendid days skiing in Engelberg, with some of
the best Spring conditions I can remember. Only about half of the
mountain skiable, with less than that officially open, but the whole
Stand side still has lots of snow cover.

This (followong) weekend not quite so good. Loads of fresh snow, even
down to below 1800m, but sadly the visibility was so poor as to make
you feel stupid for being out in it. Today we planned a 9.30 start,
only to find that they're only allowing pedestrians up the mountain,
with 'no snow sports service today'.

Guess I'll have to stay in and watch the F1 this afternoon instead.

Ace, you've certainly taken to Engelberg and looks like a resort I'll have
to visit especially if the late season skiing is always as good as you are
experiencing. Cheers, Mike
