Talk about saving the best to last. March is turning out really well with another couple of centimetres overnight. There have been some glorious snowfall this morning but with temps up there hasn't been a huge accumulation on the ground at village level but the mountain looks great.
Overnight winds were strong but settled this morning. However it is swirling around at various speed which may effect the lift operations today. (Kitanomine Gondola is closed) As the day progresses though the wind will find a rhythm and will slow.
Snow will continue through the day on/off but its tonight that may get interesting again with another 10cm expected
Gondala not open due to winds.
