Snow keeps building in Nozawa

Sorry for the late report today took us a while to dig out the car this morning
We may have snuck out for a powder run too!
Simply put amazing conditions in Nozawa at the moment

There was 50cm of fresh snow on parts of the mountain again overnight and some of the runs were chest deep powder this morning

Predictions were for light snow today but there are still huge flakes falling outside, the sun is trying to poke through so may be epic later today and then looking like sunshine tomorrow

Just a small break before a heavy dump expected on Saturday night for the Fire Festival. We had about 1 meter overnight last year on the same date so may be a repeat performance this year.

Preparations begin today on the slopes of Hikage as the trees to build the shrine get dragged down the hill.

Anyway best get back up there or on the shovel, snow waits for no man

Courses open:

All except the following
Kandahar
Hachiman
Uenotaira Half Pipe
Karasawa Wave Park

Lifts operating:
All lifts are open

Lodge Nagano getting covered in Snow
