Sloppy Seconds
After the firm snow of yesterday’s race (see past reports) today started with plus temperatures and a soft snow pack. Forecast rains did not appear but some very unusual cloud formations did take our attention away from the fact that the Kosi chair stopped for around 40mins.
Luckily the initial rumours that the chair would be offline for up to a week for repairs were quashed.
