Morning from Geto Kogen.
Sorry for the later report today, dealing with heavy snowfall. The ski area this morning reports a whopping 100cm on the mountain and there has been 82cm down at base. It basically hasn't stopped and there hasn't been much of a wind, so it has just been relentlessly piling up. Nice.
Visibility this morning is limited not because of blizzard conditions but because of the snow coming down.
Truly deep snow this morning. Exciting, but super care needs to be taken.
(Yes, the snow depth has risen by.... 5cm. Interesting!)
