Posted on Thursday 11th January 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.


Pretty cold out there this morning; cold enough that the powered doors on my van refused to budge (after making some icy crunching sounds). Very fine, powdery snow was on the ground today. The snow actually continued through the day, although the flakes got smaller and smaller over time.


Good snow conditions on the hill now, though. All the early-season thin spots are now well covered.
