(Updated after a walk and checking on snow)


Hello and good morning from a beautiful Madarao.


We have snow!


And a really good amount of it has been delivered since yesterday, too.


The ski area is actually reporting 39cm this morning! And there is evidence of that.


I can't report as much as that from my measuring point, but well over 20cm is certainly a very nice surprise and most welcome.


Right now we have blue sky with some cloud, and the mountain is looking beautiful.


Very exciting that the winter season is upcoming. Still we must wait for over three more weeks before ski lifts get moving.


Planned opening dates:


Madarao: Saturday 13th December

Tangram Ski Circus: Saturday 20th December
