Good morning from Madarao.


Generally cloudy at the moment but today we are expecting light snow. Over on the Tangram side of the mountain there is a bit of blue sky to see. So a bit mixed this morning... and definitely still cold.


Tree run courses at Madarao are gradually opening now - the areas now open are Sawa, Rabbit with Kamoshika and Bear now added to the list.


Over the coming days more snow is due. Almost what we expect as 'normal', perhaps! That sounds great.
