Good morning from Madarao.


No snow overnight but some from yesterday since my report...


Unfortunately I have to miss out on some mountain fun this morning. And I'm not happy about it. The sun is out - there's a bit of cloud but mostly it's blue skies, cold and really inviting snow conditions. I really, really wish I could be out there today. I'm guessing some of you are thinking the same reading this from somewhere other than Madarao.


Don't worry, hopefully there will be lots more days like this in the season - two full months left.


See you in February.
