Independent snow and weather reporting from the Geto Kogen region of Iwate


New snowfall at base 12cm
Snowfall at base this season 177cm

Posted on Saturday 15th December 2018 This is an archived report. The latest Geto Kogen Now report can be found here.


It's official the 'regular' season now - though we hope that it might be an 'extraordinary' one!


From today the lifts are all moving as well as all of the courses open. (Tree runs - not yet).


12cm of fresh snowfall once again to report.


Just a light wind and fair weather is forecast but take a look at the webcam. There was a bit of sun earlier on but that has gone for the moment. Changeable.


The snow is good. It should be a good weekend.
