Posted on Tuesday 11th February 2020 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


Morning from a snowy Madarao, complete with a fresh thick new layer of light snow. Lovely.


The resort is reporting 35-40cm of fresh and increasing the official snow depth up to 240cm. Tangram is taking a good jump up to 170cm too.


It doesn't feel quite as cold this morning and Mr Thermo confirms that. It will be cold overnight tonight and sunshine is due in the morning (kicking off a general warm up for a few days), so I recommend planning for an early start tomorrow.


I also recommend right now; today will likely be quite busy though due to it being a national holiday. And guess where I'm heading...
