Hello from Madarao.


The mountain is looking so yummy this morning I want to eat it. Fresh snow on the slopes and all the trees are laden with it. With blue skies above us and the sun shining down. Gorgeous.


This morning Madarao are reporting 15cm, which actually seems a bit conservative compared to what I see, and the snow depth data is suddenly up to 160cm. The official number over at Tangram is up to 120cm (up 20cm).


Keeping cold with sun and maybe some cloud today and with sunshine and milder conditions tomorrow.


Weather and snow wise, should be a very good weekend.


Looks like Crystal Bowl is open now, so the only tree run course not open currently is Powder Wave.
