Posted on Friday 22nd March 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.
What a nice day! Nice and cold overnight, just a little additional snow (I think more than 3cm fell, but that's what I got in the testing area), and mostly sunny skies.
Could be one of the nicest days of the season on the slopes, or out in the backcountry (and didn't I write that, yes, you can get powder in March?).
We are coming to the end of the season, though, with a few of the resorts closing after this weekend, and most closing at the end of the month. Now get out there and enjoy!
