Good news from Furano.


Sailer Course is now completely open from top of the ropeway, down to the base. The lower course still has a few thin patches but overall the condition is not bad for this time of year and being able to carve turns for a continuous 3.4km is a great feeling.


There was a total of 8cm fresh snow over the weekend.
