Good morning from Madarao.
Ski lifts are both Madarao and Tangram are going to be moving from this morning as we start the 2024-2025 season!
Madarao has 3 lifts scheduled to be operating and 13 courses available. Tangram has 2 lifts for their 'pre-open'.
Madarao is reporting 30cm of fresh snow too by early this morning, and I agree, so that's a very fine way to start the season.
There is more snow lined up on the forecasts over the coming days with some clearer skies also possible here and there. As I write this a lot of cloud but the snow has eased off. It's quite bright too, but we do still have snow forecast. Variable!
Season in!

By the way. Sorry for my lack of update last night. I was intending to, but I was starting to feel very unwell with a high temperature in the afternoon and had to turn off machines and get some rest. Not feeling totally great this morning, but improved.
Rubbish way to start the season personally!
