Morning from Geto Kogen.
'Just' 31cm of snowfall at base to report this morning but I note that the ski area itself is saying there has been 73cm on upper areas. Total accumulation up there is now over 22m. Can't help but laugh when I see that number, it's just nuts! ;)
So yes, it's snowing and at times visibility limited with wind blowing it all about everywhere. I think the peak of this lot is probably beyond us and things might be a bit calmer through tomorrow.
