Morning from Geto Kogen.


'Only' 40+cm of snowfall since my report yesterday. It was snowing through the day though eased off in the evening with some more overnight. At the moment it is just cloudy but there might be some more light snow into tomorrow.


A1 to B2 runs should be open today with possibly more to open up after inspections.


Check out the accumulative snowfall being reported by the ski area as of 1st December... 375cm! That's up at the top of the mountain of course. Sure seems like a great situation to be in on the first day of December!
