140cm in Two Days hard to believe only early December!

140cm in Two Days hard to believe only early December!

Base up top: 135 cm

Temp Top; -8 Degrees

Base at Uenotaira 135 cm

New Snow since close: 65 cm

Weather; Dumping

The snow just keeps coming in Nozawa. It has been falling heavily for 2 days now and the whole village has been transformed into a Winter Wonderland!

We had 70 cm for two days in a row now and the base is now 135cm up top. With plenty of fresh everywhere it is going to be an awesome opening day today!

All of the top of the mountain the Yamabiko area is open and the Nagasaka Gondola, looks like the Uenotaira area is not yet open at this stage

The forecast is for the snow to ease today and then another big system from about Thursday on. Many in the village will be looking forward to a break in the snow to get ready for the season ahead!

 

Up for first of the first lifts! Nozawa Season under way with a bang!
