A brief interlude to the Snow Show in Nozawa Onsen

by Mark on December 28, 2011

Yesterday just dumped all day but today there are some clearer conditions in Nozawa

Base up top: 260 cm                  Temperature; -9 Degrees

Base at bottom; 190 cm

New Snow: 10 cm

Looks like we are finally getting a break in the snow fight here in Nozawa. After days of continual dumps this morning was relatively clear and everyone has breathed a slight sigh of relief.

The ski conditions have been nothing short of superb on the Mountain and yesterday were delivering chest deep powder on many of the runs with the snow just dumping all day. One of the guys just did a run down Skyline and said it was amazing snow quality. We have not been delivered the blue bird day we were hoping for but there are patches of blue and even some light snow falling.

The rest period looks like it will be short lived though with another heavy dump of snow expected from tomorrow afternoon so the powder hounds will be in their element yet again.

Looking further ahead it looks like Saturday the last day of the year will be amazing and some sun and snow on the menu for the New Year. Will be a great buzz in the Village with a good number of guests expected to arrive. Stay safe and see you on the slopes.
