It has been an absolutely fantastic morning in Furano with bluebird until late morning and now high cloud moving over the tops. If you were after a private mountain experience today would be the day. At 8:30am on the Kitanomine side only Furano Now appeared to ride the first lift and then at 9am for the start of the Gondola the experience was repeated. It is again fairly cold out there and the conditions are very firm on piste, softening a little on faces getting prolonged sun exposure.
