Another Snow Dump in Nozawa
Another awesome dump of snow for Nozawa Overnight
March Magic turning into a bit of March Madness with more lovely powder snow overnight. The resort reporting 15cm but it feels like more and still going strong. Lovely big flakes lofting from the sky as I type this just out my window. Yesterday was an awesome day on the hill and today should be even better. The base has jumped back up to 225cm almost the peak for the season and there will be some epic powder turns to be had all over the resort today. Lantern festival also on tonight from 7pm at Nagsaka Slope with fireworks and a flare run. Great time to be in Nozawa so enjoy.
