Posted on Friday 25th January 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Geto Kogen Now report can be found here.


Morning from Geto Kogen.


Snow again through the day yesterday - it doesn't seem to want to quit!


Some gas/fog around making visibility rather limited and indeed the quad lift had to stop due to the conditions at the time and all but A1-5 courses were closed too.


This morning just 7cm (was expecting more) of fresh to report. There's some thin cloud around the mountain and clearer down below, perhaps we will get some sun today?


Forecast for tomorrow is currently cloud/fine.
