Is snow still being made?
How long snowmaking is permitted varies from region to region. At Spitzingsee, snowmaking is actually permitted from mid-November to mid-February.
This also fits in with practice, as snowmaking usually no longer makes sense from this point onwards
Snowmaking on the pistes is only intended in the "real" winter - when the temperatures are below freezing. This is usually no longer the case in March.
Another argument is that the snow can melt again in spring - as nature intended.
The rule is: support natural snow, don't force it.
Incidentally, there is nothing artificial about machine-produced snow: like natural snow, it consists only of water and cold air.
