After a fine day it is getting darker now, the lifts have stopped moving for the last day and the season is now officially over in Nozawa. That went quick! Only 6 months or so to wait for the next snow to fall...
In the meantime, Nozawa is still a really nice place to visit when there's no snow and is worth checking out.
Thanks for reading the Nozawa Now reports this season, we hope that you found them to be of use and interesting and enjoyed Nozawa if you were able to visit this season.
We hope you have a great summer and see you in the run up to next season - Nozawa Now will be back with weather reports and news in autumn. |

| It's a very foggy morning up there with very poor visibility and as such the resort is not yet open... if things clear up a bit there is a chance that they may open the lifts as usual. Cloudy and not as warm as it has been as well this morning, just 1 degree up there. |
