Saturday is a busy day in the Jungfrau region. Free skiing for children attracts families and ski clubs alike. Yesterday, a sunny Saturday, was very crowded Today, an equally sunny Sunday, was quiet The cable car was busy first thing, but by late morning the pistes were almost empty. Calm and tranquility reigned on the Wengen pistes.
The current suuny weather is due to continue indefinitely, or so it seems, which is all well and good, but some fresh snow is needed urgently after the recent warm period. Otherwise, the season might melt away at an ever increasing rate.
A good morning and an okay afternoon (north facing pistes at least remained in good condition all day) brought 9,541 vertical metres in 21 lift rides and 57 kilometres travelled.
