After seeing the news of all the snow in Tokyo I think we were just wondering why it was falling in the wrong place! But good news at Madarao this morning with 30cm of fresh snow to report. Lighter than the kind we got yesterday as well.
Strong winds and poor visibility though today and top lifts might be affected.
Tomorrow will be much 'kinder' weather wise, and there should be some more fresh to play in, should be a good day.
Lifts planned to be operating:
Number 1
Number 2
Number 3
Super quad
Number 5
Number 11
Number 12
Number 15
