Good Morning skiers and boarders,
Down to -16 C last night, so there is no danger of any snow melting any time soon. High today will be -4 C. Looks like that's going to be the pattern for the next several days. Spring skiing may start in earnest on Sunday with highs of 6+ C, and continuing for several days.
Baaaarely 1 cm of snow overnight. Barely worth mentioning, but I am constrained by the facts.
Crowds are way, way down, so if you hate lines, come to Furano in March.
Think snow.
** Furano Zone Lift B (aka Furano Quad) is closed for the season due to mechanical failure. New braking mechanism must be fabricated.**
Furano Zone: All except Lift B.
Kitanomine: All lifts open. Premium Zone is closed, probably for the season.
Regular lifts closing at 4:00 PM
Night skiing until 6:00 PM tonight on both sides.
