Hello from Madarao.


Another 10cm or so of fresh snow since yesterday and it was a pretty cold start this morning.


This morning the sun is out and it's just a time of feel-good vibes. Much less busy than peak season too.


If forecasts are correct, there's going to be more fresh snow falling from the sky tomorrow and then from Thursday onwards there will be a lot of sun with warming conditions.


As noted yesterday, Tangram has extended the season until 6th April.
