Posted on Tuesday 28th March 2017 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


A bit more snow from yesterday, but this morning the sun is out and there's blue sky with some cloud up there.


A lovely morning.


And you can tell how it is now school holidays as there are more families around with young children, getting in some last skiing or boarding before the season is over.


Perhaps a bit of snow here and there before Sunday, but generally it should be calm conditions and a fair bit of sunshine.


This time next week, Madarao will be closed. Make the effort to get here while things are still open - and very decent for late March too!


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

6 days to go!
