The base is perfect at Madarao with another 24 centimetres falling on the lawn at Snowball Chalet and Snowman Apartments.
Watching fat flakes gently falling from the sky from our window is so good for the soul. When snow comes without wind it gently settles and is soft and fluffy and light. It is what Japow dreams are made of. It's what powder obsessed riders hunt and it is what Madarao is so lucky to have so much of.
Today's pic is actually from our last sunny day of the totally magnificent view from the lounge at Snowball Japan's lovely new staff accommodation.
