Posted at 9:50am on Friday 21st December 2012 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


Snow clouds moved in yesterday and this morning we have 10-15cm of fresh snow on the ground in Madarao. It's -4C this morning and a thick layer of cloud covers the upper half of the mountain. The snow has eased off for the moment but might be back later on.


Tomorrow we're due milder temperatures and quite possibly rain falling at base. Fingers crossed that doesn't happen and if it does it is snow.


Decent snowfall still due later in the weekend.


Madarao plans to have the following lifts moving from Saturday:


Number 1

Number 2 quad

Super quad

Number 5

Number 11

The connection with Tangram Ski Circus will also be open from Saturday.


Still looking good for heavy snowfall late weekend, though hopefully the snow will be with us from Saturday.
