Good morning from Geto Kogen.


Over 20m of snowfall this season on the mountain. Today is the day we bust through that number as another 50cm is added today.


We might get some more today but it is probably easing off now and we might go a few days without. Time to rest from shovelling and saving buildings from collapse. (That's what locals have to do).


Courses open:

All normal courses open.

Planned tree run courses: all (subject to inspection and conditions)


Lifts operating (subject to change):

All lifts other than second gondola plan to be open


Official snow depth (as reported by the ski area):
