Good morning from Geto Kogen.
We were hopeful for good news this morning and I am happy to report a layer of fresh snow... up to 20cm on upper areas of the mountain (reported by the ski area) and a fair amount closer to too.
50+cm would have been better, but this fresh is very welcome! Conditions should feel nice and fresh this morning. :)
The snow has stopped at the moment and it is just cloudy but hopefully we will be getting more in the coming days. Sunday/Monday looks like the best chance for the next decent numbers.
