Fat flakes and frozen lakes for Nozawa
It started snowing here last night not so heavy but now the snow angels are dropping some nice big snow flakes from the sky. The resort reporting 30cm or the “Magic Foot” overnight for the top and the snow show is set to continue all day long. We should see another 30cm on top by tomorrow morning. Temps also set to plummet through the day so the powder will be cold and light. There will be a few more people about for the weekend and Fire Festival activities but does not look too crazy at this stage. Be sure to head over to Hikage at 1pm for the log dragging or catch them on their way down town through the afternoon.
