First day of the Northumberland ski season tomorrow.
There is about 6cms, lying on increasingly frozen ground, so the field will be skiable if a bit bumpy. We will open at about 11.00am. Please park carefully and, as it is our first day running the tows, there may be the occasional interruption and you may be called on to help.
