Solden is one of the eight Austrian glacier ski areas that has been open for over a month already.
It already staged the first World Cup race of the 2017-18 season the fortnight before last.
It has had repeat snowfalls most weekends through the autumn so it’s a great start top the season so far.
The last big snowfall was at the weekend when 60cm (two feet) of snow fell. It’s now well below freezing so that snow is staying in good shape and more snow is forecast next weekend.
Solden will also open its Giggijoch mountain on Friday for the season (pictured above and top).
It is also getting ready for its big Electric Mountain festival on December 2nd.
