Overview
- Sierra Nevada resumed operations after a brief shutdown triggered by cracks on the A-395 near kilometer 31, keeping the main road closed while opening an internal Pradollano access route.
- Entry is restricted to guests staying in the resort and skiers with pre-purchased lift passes, with the Guardia Civil regulating traffic at kilometer 23.
- The resort reported powder conditions with snow depths from about 80 to 380 centimeters, 10 lifts and 28 pistes in service, and 17.6 kilometers available.
- Operators counted roughly 7,500 skiers on Sunday and expected nearly 10,000 on Monday, with hotel occupancy around 85% to 90% and notable British and Portuguese visitors.
- Valdesquí, closed six days by storms Nils, Oriana and Marta that left frozen chairs and fallen trees, plans a cautious partial reopening on Tuesday pending a morning safety check, with about nine pistes—roughly 4.5 kilometers—initially listed.
