Winery Lake Nozawa Japan
Winery Lake Nozawa Japan
Get ready for a cool change
Yesterday we went swimming in nearby Lake Nojiro! It wasn’t a long swim with water temp just below 10 degrees but was refreshing nonetheless. All the snow run off ensuring we knew we were alive! Still a warm morning in Nozawa but get ready for temps to fall drastically later today. Tomorrow morning we should wake up to the minus zone up top and most likely a bit of snow. Really love this time of year exploring nearby towns and mountains and still have the lifts rolling to enjoy the Spring slush on the hill. We also went by the St. Cousair Winery which is an amazing spot for lunch and some tastings. https://www.stcousair.co.jp/valley
A bit of cloud cover today should keep things flowing and looking forward to the last blast of winter in the coming days.

❄️ SNOW FORECAST:
Swipe across to see what is install for the next few days but will definitely need to put the winter jackets on again. Not huge numbers of snow expected but a little top up and the cold temps will help to preserve the base. It is just dropped below the 3 meter mark for the first time in a while. The bottom lifts will close on Sunday the 30th of March but with so much base we should still be able to enjoy top to bottom skiing for a while. Get up there and enjoy the Spring morning but take a few layers as it is going to cool down.
