Good morning from Hakuba.


Your headlines this morning:


Hakuba Cortina: 20cm

Hakuba Happo-one: 5cm (top of Riesen lift)

Hakuba 47: 5cm

Hakuba Goryu 1-5cm


Light snow during the day yesterday and this morning not huge numbers (20cm sounds good at Cortina), but it is remaining cold and the snow quality looks great. Can't wait to go check it out on the mountain myself. And that's what I'm going to do, right now.


Just before that: looking ahead, perhaps some sun tomorrow, snow on Saturday and then clearer skies around Sunday and Monday. As long as it keeps cold...
