Good morning from Geto Kogen.


After a milder kind of day it got colder overnight... and the snow continued.


And this March Saturday has to be one of the better mornings of the whole season (in terms of snowfall to report)! The ski area reports 62cm of new snow on the mountain, and there is 0.5m down around base too. What's even better is that more is expected through Monday.


Excellent. It's just great to see large amounts of fresh again. It has felt kind of lonely at times without much of that this season.
