Posted on Saturday 22nd March 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


The sun is out this morning which is a big change from the conditions we had yesterday - which was mid-winter like snow and wind too. Lots of snow as well. The resort is saying differing numbers actually. I am reading 20cm. And I am reading 30-40cm. Wind may have something to do with that but I would say easily 20cm since yesterday is what I had to move off the bonnet of the car.


Bottom line - nice new layer of snow that will have really refreshed the mountain.


It's sunny too; so excellent conditions this Saturday morning.
