Posted on Sunday 4th January 2026 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.
Only a light dusting of snow since last night, and a sunny day once again. Which is nice for visibility, but we could really use some continued snow. The forecast is for snow starting from late afternoon, and I hope it’s a big one.
Backcountry still is not going to be a lot of fun—there’s a lot of brush out there and not a lot of open patches of snow.
