snowdude 44 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Seems like Hokkaido's on the wrong side of a big low pressure system. It's snowing in some mountainous areas down here believe it or not. Yes I noticed that because here in Yamanashi it snowed this morning while Hokkaido was positively warm compared to here.

best skier in hakuba 5 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 About 20cm where I am. Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 20cm of cement at my place too. Maybe that should be "cementy powder"! I changed my tyres last week but my garden hasn't been tied up and my trees are bent over double Link to post Share on other sites
gerard 6 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Cement. Sounds like a good foundation. Link to post Share on other sites

SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted November 21, 2013 SnowJapan Admin Share Posted November 21, 2013 Happo all set to open tomorrow it seems with the Gondola, Panorama pair and Kokusai No3 pair due to be moving. Goryu as well, up top. Still waiting to hear from 47. Will update the Now report. Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Fujimi Panarama won't be long opening either by the looks of it, they have been making snow every night for the past 10 days or so, although I will wait until the real stuff arrives! Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 See Rusutsu are opening up the top of Steamboat on Isola tomorrow, Sapporo Kokusai have apparently posted they expect a 40-50 minute wait on lifts and for people to not complain.....Teine isn't opening.....think I'll keep my powder dry for a bit longer Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I was just thinking as there is not much in the way of stoke yet, how about ice stoke does that count, plenty of frost and ice at night here for the past 2 weeks or so. Link to post Share on other sites
MagSeven 40 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Here's a bit of stoke. Ankle deep fresh snow today up at Nakayama Touge. I wasn't too stoked about the lift line though. Quite a wait for such a short run. But a good morning to kick off the season. Link to post Share on other sites
