Cool Sun filled weekend in Nozawa
Have to admit I do love this time of year. Can live comfortably in town without shovelling tonnes of snow, ride your bike, hang your clothes outside to dry and still have some fun on the slopes. The last two days have been really enjoyable spring skiing. The colder temps overnight have kept the slush fast and easy to turn in.
I was getting worried last week as it was sticky and the fog was thick. Almost put a storage wax on the skis but the last two days have encouraged me to keep getting up the mountain. The resort even used the snow machines last night to make some fresh snow.
