Locko 0 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 I was planning on Hakuba for first week in April - but given that it seems to be raining big time there and the forecast is for warm temperatures I am thinking of switching to Niseko. Is anyone there at the moment? There seems to be plenty of snow. Link to post Share on other sites
quattro 1 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Well it rained in Sapporo and the temp was 13 Yesterday at Kiroro it was decent up top but pretty slushy down low. Sorry I cant comment on Niseko directly. I'm sure theres plenty of snow but what condition. Link to post Share on other sites

TJ OZ 0 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Snow was still good at Happo yesterday and I was able to board top to bottom to the gondola. There should still be plenty for you in April although the lower areas will be light on. 47 seems to be holding up pretty good. Link to post Share on other sites
mrjamie 0 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 It was raining in Niseko yesterday, and I decided to leave a few days early. There is snow on the mountains, but it's a question of whether you'll get clear skies or clouds and light rain. Link to post Share on other sites
SirJibAlot 0 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 TJ, Plenty of snow in April - even after pissing down rain all day today? 47 was awesome last weekend, but given the higher temperatures and heavy rain, I'm thinking this season isn't got legs into April...

TJ OZ 0 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Hey SJA. Plenty up top still and April is only a week away. The rain wasn't that heavy up here on Saturday night. Still and cloudy today. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Looking at the webcam up at Ace 3, there still seems to be plenty of snow at Niseko. Hope it lasts for you. Link to post Share on other sites

jimmclee 0 Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Is there anyone living in Niseko can tell the status now? I am coming on Easter holiday next week. Thanks a lot. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Dude, check out this webcam http://www.grand-hirafu.jp/livecam2/cam2_b.jpg You are 2 weeks out, so I guess there'd still be some left for you.
