Yesterday we enjoyed some fine weather on what was the last day of the 2015-2016 season for Madarao Kogen (neighbouring Tangram Ski Circus is open through until Sunday).

So here we are, the last day of the season for Madarao Kogen.

Can you believe it? Today is the last Saturday of the season here (for Madarao Kogen anyway, Tangram plans to continue on until next weekend).

Madarao this morning is reporting an impressive 20-30cm of fresh snow and there's certainly a nice layer of fresh snow on my car as well. All in the spirit of this 'strange season' perhaps!

Morning from Madarao and... it's snowing! And it's actually snowing pretty good at the moment. Interesting weather, but this time on the good side of being interesting!

Winter isn't giving up just quite yet.

A little bit more snow since last night - there's just over 1cm on the top of my car outside this morning.

There's some cloud up at the start of the day but blue sky as well and we're expecting another warm spring day in the region.

Wintery conditions with snow falling and a bit of a wind blowing... and Madarao Kogen reporting 15-20cm of fresh snowfall! And a decent layer on top of the car here near base as well...

Early on this morning there was a lot of fog around but now the lifts are spinning it has lifted leaving us with a good view of the frosty looking mountain.

It's a pleasingly cold start to the day and there has just been a slight bit of snowfall with trees looking frosted and very pretty this morning.

Morning from Madarao and it's looking more like winter again with snow hanging on the trees and that white-silver look we love so much.

Once again, it's blue skies above Mt Madarao this morning.

Snow wasn't falling as hard but there was a lot of fresh snow to play in.
