Posted on Saturday 8th February 2020 This is an archived report. The latest Geto Kogen Now report can be found here.


Good morning from Geto.


To start off the weekend we have cloudy skies - very light snow falling as I write this - and I have 6cm of fresh snowfall to report since yesterday morning.


It isn't quite as cold - but still well below zero so we need those layers still.


Perhaps today we will see similar to yesterday; that is cloudy with light snow at times. Tomorrow snow followed by cloud seems to be what the forecasts say.


Have fun and take care, wherever you might be this weekend.


Oh yes sorry the biggest news ---- Shooter tree run area should be open today!
