Hello Ski-gang!
 
Here are some more news from the construction on the slopes in Rauris:
 
1. The lake for the snow-machines:
The lake is completely finished and since the middle of last week, water is starting to fill the "hole in ground". The whole lake will have the capacity of 65000 m3 water, which will make it so much easier to use the snow-machines this winter.
 
2. The re-newed / new slope down to the valley beneath the gondola:
I had a meeting with the manager of the lift-company today, and he told me, that also the slope will be ready for this season. That will give some nice new challenges. :-)
 
3. It's snowing again:
Since yesterday it has been snowing again, and Rauris is all covered in white. And it is still snowing. :-))))
 
I included some photos from the ski-area, taken about a week ago. And also one photo where you can see, where the new slope will making it's way down to the valley.
 
I hope I could give you some more info with this mail.
 
The best greetings from Rauris to the whole gang, and I am looking forward to see you all again in the winter.
 
Harry Maier
