This was taken yesterday morning (6th January). This morning it seems to have gone down a bit (perhaps due to that nasty rain last night).

Oops sorry. A photo was taken today and I forgot to upload it.... coming early tomorrow morning.

Thank you pete. Please do let us know if you don't hear from any places after a bit and we'll look into it. Appreciate the support.

panhead pete - if some of the listings on our site don't get back to you, we'd actually like to know about it so that we can ask them why. You would think they would reply! If there are any that don't reply after a number of days, please do let us know if you can. Some of the listings on there are done via travel agents (usually because they find it difficult to deal directly in English) if you look at the contact information. Of course, using our site to contact places goes some way to helping support us, so thank you for people doing it that way rather than going elsewhere. G

Yes Rob. It is probably about the same distance from Yuzawa station as Mitsumata is (if not nearer) but in the other direction. Maiko is a 10 minute (in ideal conditions) bus/taxi trip from the main Echigo Yuzawa Station. There are shuttle buses going there from the station. If you are driving, it is really easy. Get off the Kanetsu Expressway at the Shiozawa Ishiuchi IC (which is 5 minutes further on than the Yuzawa IC) and the resort car parks are literally 2 minutes from there. http://www.snowjapan.com/e/japan-ski-town-maps/ishiuchi/ishiuchi.html http://www.snowjapa

Quote: I believe that SJ has edited Mongooses response to GN for being OTT offensive. Correct. Sorry if that was not clear.

Overwhelming public demand - so here's a new photo. Hopefully next time we see it, it will be surrounded by white

Naeba is an option, but I would suggest Kagura might be the better in these circumstances. Here is information as well as forecast for Naeba http://www.snowjapan.com/e/resorts/resortdetail.php?resid=1 50cm at the base is artificial snow and only on one run. You'll see that we haven't had much snowfall at all in the last week or two. Real snow up top and you can actually ski down, but it's thin on the ground. Check out the Naeba Now page over the last few weeks to get an idea of how things have shaped up. I am also concerned about the lack of snow! And lots of other peop

Yes, I think so, but I believe the rental equipment shop at NASPA will be more extensive than at Tashiro ropeway station. I might be wrong there, anyone else?

Someone asked us this in an email so I'll reply on here --- more resorts will appear in the tables when there is actually snow at the resorts and they get into "reporting mode". Eventually there'll be data for (I think) about 450 resorts.

Hello, this might help with info from the past 6 years or so http://www.snowjapan.com/e/daily/hakuba-now.php

pie-eater, I'm afraid. Bit no mind, lets fish.

I just merged these two posts for you - posted within a minute of each other!
