Nozawa Onsen Delivers!
Nozawa Onsen Delivers!
Getting a bit like ground hog day here waking up to heavy snow on a daily basis. Making for some amazing powder snow conditions on the mountain. Plenty of hard work for the locals with shovelling and spare a thought for our hard working Postman, delivering rain hail or 50cm of powder snow!
Just 10cm of fresh overnight compared to the 50cm yesterday morning but the snow machine has gone into overdrive since the lifts opened so would say there is another 10cm plus already this morning. If you love your powder then you would have been in seven heaven this last week in Nozawa. More to come with over a Magic Foot expected tonight and still 3 more days of constant snow!
TODAY:
🌡️ Temperature at the top: -12 degrees
❄️ New snow since yesterday: 10cm
🏔️ Base at the top of Nagasaka: 345cm
❄️ Snow conditions: Groomed with a light layer of fresh with powder on sides
🌤️ Weather: Heavy snow turning light later today

❄️ SNOW FORECAST:
Fresh snow is here, and more keeps coming! 🌨️ Heavy snowfall continues today and tomorrow, with deep powder conditions expected, while cold temps (-12°C to -15°C) will keep the snow light and dry. The weekend brings lighter snow with some sunny breaks—perfect for bluebird powder days—while next week offers a mix of sunshine and fresh snowfall to keep the slopes in top shape. In town, it’s chilly, so layer up and watch for icy roads, but there’s no better time to enjoy a warm onsen soak! ♨️ Stay safe, ride smart, and enjoy yet another day of epic conditions in Nozawa Onsen!
