Yesterday there was some light snow falling through the day but it didn't really accumulate on the ground. Today was a bit better with colder temperatures allowing a build up of around 5cm in Kitanomine. The good news is that it seems the resort will open tomorrow as planned. The open courses will be the upper part of the Sailer Course and Shirakaba Course, which are around 750-800m in length each. Great to see the season kick off on schedule.
Furano Zone expected to open 24 November.
