Posted at 8:44am on Sunday 6th January 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


It is another clear morning in Madarao today. With no cloud cover it was a particularly brisk start to the morning (in other words, extremely cold). But as the sun rises, it looks like it will be another great day on the mountain. A little snow is forecast for the afternoon, but nothing to really trouble the bean counters.


All in all, the powder is still around, the curry is in the pot, the ramen is steaming, the beer is on ice - another fine day basically.
