Good morning from Geto Kogen.


24cm more of fresh snow to report to you this morning. It was snowing for the morning yesterday easing off in the afternoon and then back to snow again overnight.


Light wind early this morning but light snow is still falling. Perhaps we might get some clearer skies again later on in the day and tomorrow the forecast is currently for cloud and fine at times.


With the snow of the last few days conditions should be excellent for the weekend.
