Verbier off-piste report

Snow has finally arrived in Verbier but warm temperatures kept the snowline high. It rained up to about 2000m from Wednesday to Saturday. It cleared up yesterday and the skiing was fast due to high winds that left the snow well compressed. In some areas like the Col des Mouches all the snow that fell slid to ground. Again high temps created unstable conditions and in the afternoon more areas slid, for example, the Attelas couloirs and other aspects in Tortin-Col des Mouches domain.
It has started snowing again so it looks like we will be getting more powder skiing. Right now it is about 3-4 degrees so the snow is not sticking down here but it is definitely snowing up high.
The winter was late this year but it looks like we might be getting back on track.
Keep your tips up!
