hi i was wanting to go on a trip to russia around easter time with a few friends - some of them are into skiing but i read that the snow maybe only lasts until mid march in moscow? what times of year can you ski in st.petersburg? Also is it possible to see a snow report for skiing anywhere or an advance idea of how much snow there will be around easter time?
thanks for your help

It is the place where Putin does skiing. As far as I know they guarantee snow until April.

Many Russians migrated to Swedish ski resorts for the Russian New Year, the TV told me...
