Good morning from Geto Kogen.

Yesterday we ended up with cloudy skies through the day and this morning it is snowing... but just lightly. There's 3cm in lower areas this morning.


It is relatively mild early on and not much of a wind, but that is due to increase later in the day today. We are also due snow (lots of it says forecast) starting overnight tonight. So fingers crossed I will be able to report a good mountain reset tomorrow.
