Posted on Monday 17th February 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.
Hurray! The resort is actually open today after the stormy conditions yesterday, but there's not much to see. Is it still there? Has it been blown away? I can't see it! Fog/'gas'/cloud is completely covering the mountain and pretty much everything else as visibility is down to almost zero.
It is a cold morning and light snow falling as well. Moderate winds remain but the resort is open. There is a chance that some lifts might still be affected by conditions today, so checks are advised.
Things should soon be clearing up though. Cloud forecast for tomorrow and it might even be sunny at times.
If we get a clear day in the next few, will be excellent out there.
Operating lifts (planned):
Number 1
Number 2
Number 3A
Number 2 quad
Number 5

Number 11
Number 12
