Snow Report 2nd January 2020
Another day another dump of snow on the mountain, looks like our fortunes may have turned and 2020 is already looking better. Yesterday we had 20cm of fresh fall on the slopes as well as some blue skies so it was a beautiful day up on the mountain.
There was similar amounts of snow overnight, so there should be some fresh powder on the slopes this morning. Light snow coming down on the mountain throughout the day, so good conditions for those going up.
School holidays are in full force here for both Japanese and overseas kids, so there may be more crowds this weekend as the New Years holiday winds down for Japanese people. The Forecast is for fairly heavy snow Friday through Sunday afternoon, so you should still be able to catch some fresh tracks even with the crowds.
