Good news!
We had a bit of a storm thing going on yesterday with wind and snow.
And we got a good delivery! Ski area reporting over 50cm on mountain. That sounds like Geto Kogen, right?
Might not get much more snow over the next day or two, but the forecasts are looking pretty good for snow through the coming week. Looks like normal winter patterns settling in.
