Posted on Wednesday 11th March 2015 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


Good morning from Madarao, where the resort were last night saying that there had been 20cm of snowfall, and this morning apparently another 20cm 'since last night'. 20+20 = 40cm right? The official site is giving us 20cm over the last 24 hours though, so I'm a bit confused there.


Whatever, it's a nice decent layer - and for the record here at base (which is the number I log anyway) it's around 20cm. Windy conditions yesterday were blowing around quite a lot.


It's cold too this morning, so it's feeling very much like we are back into winter again. Which of course is great.


The snow continues to fall and so we should be getting more to add to the haul so far.


Should be great out there this morning.
