Posted on Thursday 16th January 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.
An early report today, because it's a day for a climb in the hills.
That means no official snow reports from the town, but we only got a very light dusting of snow overnight. It looks like snow could fall, with gray clouds over the peaks and a freshening wind that's not sure which way it wants to blow (a bit from the west, a bit from the north, the normal flows around the base of Mt. Myoko).
Conditions have improved a lot, but we could still use some heavy (or as we say here, normal) snow to fill in the small trees offpiste.
