Morning from Madarao.
And it's another good one with a good layer of fresh snow, more falling and more on the way over the weekend.
The resort is reporting 20-30cm of fresh on the mountain as of 8am, and I just measured 23cm... with more being added pretty quickly.
Very nice.
What more is there to say? Just if you are planning a weekend visit to Madarao, be ready for very snowy conditions. If that's your bag, you'll be in for a treat.
The next time we see the sun will probably be early next week.
