Posted on Saturday 18th April 2020 This is an archived report. The latest Geto Kogen Now report can be found here.
Geto remains open but a few things to note:
Only folks from within Iwate Prefecture are welcome - they are checking number plates on vehicles arriving. The reason for this move is because officially there are no cases of the coronavirus in Iwate Prefecture.
And the Gondola is not operating... rather the Number 1 pair lift is moving.
Just the A1, A2 and A3 courses are open.
It's not a very nice morning with rain falling so not many people around...

* Top: 300cm
* Base: 105cm
Planned operating lift information - subject to change:
* Number 1 pair lift
Courses & Tree Runs:
