Posted on Thursday 29th February 2024 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.


I wish I had been more forceful in my message yesterday, about the potential dangers out there after all that wind and snow.... Two accidents, one injury, one fatality. It's always tough, because you know it's people out there to have fun who are involved. Take the gear, have the education, get as much info as possible. That's not our main thing here, of course, but I will add a few notes when we can see the danger level increasing!


Otherwise, it's going to be a great day of skiing.


The snow is good, the sun is out, the mountains are beautiful. Savor every turn!
