Snow and blue skies on the way! Snow and blue skies on the way!   Looking out the window this morning, it’s a much clearer view compared to yesterday! Yesterday’s early afternoon winds have settled, and after a day of heavy to moderate snowfall, the mountain is looking beautifully refreshed. Expect a pleasant day up top with -2°C, slow southern winds, and a chance of clearing skies around midday—perfect conditions for carving up those slopes!     But hold onto your beanies because a big dump is incoming from tomorrow night! NW winds are approaching, bringing another round of deep snow to keep the season going strong. Looking ahead, the long-term forecast is calling for sunnier and slightly warmer days, […]

Spring Tease to Snowy Dreams Spring Tease to Snowy Dreams     Yesterday brought us a taste of spring on the slopes, with a mild 2°C at the top and stunning bluebird skies—our warmest day of the season so far! Some were even spotted enjoying the sunshine in T-shirts. The perfect weather set the stage for a magical Lantern Festival, ending with a breathtaking fireworks display over Nagasaka slope. But winter isn’t done with us yet! A bit of rain is expected today in both the village and on the mountain, but by Monday morning, we’ll be waking up to a fresh layer of snow blanketing the resort once again. Looking ahead, the long-term forecast is teasing us with some […]

Spring vibes but not for long! Spring vibes but not for long!   We’re kicking off March with perfectly clear skies and warm, springlike weather—an absolute dream for a day on the slopes! Yesterday, we wrapped up February with fantastic conditions up top, and today is just as ideal for exploring the mountain and soaking up the sunshine. 🌞 For the best midday break, Hikage Station is a great spot to grab lunch and relax in the sun. Or, if you’re up for even better views, take a ride up to Buna on Paradise Slope and treat yourself to a soft ice cream while overlooking the mountains! 🍦🏔️     Enjoy the bluebird skies while they last because winter isn’t […]

Last Day of Winter Last Day of Winter   Still waking up to -4 degrees and a massive 400cm base of snow up at Yamabiko. It has been a big winter and personally really looking forward to Spring and some magnificent Spring skiing. With all that base it is going to be a long season with still 2 months of skiing to go!     Yesterday was a magnificent day up on the slopes. Early cloud cover kept the snow firm and then eventually gave way to sunshine and a beautiful sunset. This morning is sunny from the get go. There may be some scattered cloud but will be another awesome day on the slopes so get up there and […]

Even snowing on the sunny days Even snowing on the sunny days   Got a bit of a nice surprise this morning when opened my window to see some decent size flakes lofting from the sky. The weatherman had promised me sunshine. Dont think the snow will last or make much of a difference but pretty to see all the same. Another magic day on the slopes yesterday with a mix of cloud and sunshine. Can feel things starting to get a bit quieter around town too and with March just 2 days away and the start of spring really looking forward to the transition.     If still keen to come up and take advantage of this 4 meter […]

Best day of the season again 🙂 Best day of the season again 🙂   Depending on what kind of skiing you like we have had multiple amazing days over the whole season really but particularly the last few weeks. I love both snowy days and sunny days but after non stop snow it was pretty amazing to have a full blown sunshine bluebird day. The 16cm of fresh on top of all that snow helped too for perfect conditions across the whole mountain. Looking out the window this morning and looks like some scattered cloud set to pause the Sunshine run, may even get some light snow up top. Big night last night for the Nozawa Holidays Annual Retro […]

Bluebird Skies & Fresh Turns Bluebird Skies & Fresh Turns     Bluebird mornings like today are what dreams are made of! ☀️✨ The sun is shining across Nozawa Onsen, bringing smiles to everyone’s faces after the recent snowstorms. While the weekend rush has settled, the slopes are still buzzing with riders making the most of the perfect conditions. With clear skies and easing snowfall, temperatures are sitting at a crisp -5°C at the top today and tomorrow—ideal for carving up that quality snow! Looking ahead, we’ll see a gradual rise in temperatures, peaking at around 3°C at the summit over the weekend. But don’t pack away the powder boards just yet—March is coming in strong with fresh snowfall on […]

Despite a forecast calling for snow all day, Nozawa Onsen was sparkling under bright sunshine. Yesterday and today have been busy as ever on the slopes, with many visitors joining the weekend fun—no surprise given some of the best snow and conditions we’ve seen this season!     Last night’s night skiing at Nagasaka was a hit, and if you missed it, you have another chance tonight (Sunday)!
