Posted on Wednesday 16th January 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Geto Kogen Now report can be found here.
It is a very good morning here in Geto.
Yesterday was a fine day with just a gentle wind.
Overnight though some fabulous snow clouds moved in over the region and this morning we have an impressive 40cm of fresh snowfall on the ground. A rather strong wind too with snow forecast for the day -- and tomorrow too.
Visibility limited but... reset time!
Note that early on just the Number 2 pair lift is operating - others on hold due to wind. Once things calm down conditions should be fantastic.
