Posted on Sunday 7th May 2017 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.
Here we are, the last day of the season for the resorts... and the snow held out to the very end!
And a nice day out there for it, too. The wind will pick up from tomorrow, and rain looks likely next week, so the timing is great - and there's still lots of snow up high for the backcountry people as well!
It was a really good season for Myoko - lots of snow, lots of people, no major accidents (apart from lost sidecountry skiers). If you're off the runs, you're in the backcountry and you need the gear, the skills and the experience.
We want people to ski tomorrow, too!
Until next season.
