This was on top of earlier snowfalls such as this one on October 23rd:
After this weekend the slopes will open again, all being well, on 25-26 November, 2-3 December then daily from 9 December.
8 Swiss ski areas should be open this weekend, with Andermatt also planning to open for the first time, but Laax, which opened last weekend, has ruled out opening next weekend due to forecast strong winds and more snow.
Other Swiss ski areas open are Engelberg, Zermatt, Gstaad (Glacier 3000), St Moritz (Diavolezza Glacier), Davos and Saas Fee.
