Pretty much all the region in Austria got a good dump of snow and whilst the weather is set to be milder this week in Austria the ski holiday resorts of Austria are well set for an early start to the season. The Austrian glaciers are in great shape although the deep new snow over the weekend was accompanied by bitingly cold weather – we had staff on the Stubai Glacier over the weekend and the temperatures were reported as bitterly cold. Around Innsbruck the mountains are thick with snow, the picture below is of Axamer Lizum from the valley – the season opening at Axamer Lizum, Innsbruck is only a few weeks away now.
