What's this... winter?!


Fresh snow alert! And it's pretty cold too. And snow is forecast through today.


Yes, the resort is reporting 5cm and I have 6cm on top of my vehicle outside, so let's hope there'll be more during the day.


And for you weekend visitors - looks like you can expect fine weather conditions. Get here early is my recommendation.


All sounds good, right?


Madarao Kogen plans to be open until Sunday 2nd April.

10 days to go!
