Early Season Snow Nozawa
Early Season Snow Nozawa Paradise slope turns in Nozawa A few keen folk hiked up Paradise slope yesterday where there was enough fresh snow to have a slide. Even more up top with the resort reporting 40cm up there. Which was enough for the groomers to get in and consolidate a base up there.

Will be interesting to see if the resort employs the Snow Making facilities to top things up for opening weekend. Beautiful conditions ahead with plenty of sunshine amongst the snow flurries and light winds. Great for […]
