Posted on Tuesday 16th February 2021 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.
After that wet kind of day yesterday with some strong winds overnight there is good news this morning... ski areas are reporting snowfall on the mountain. Up to 20cm of it. There's just a little down to base areas, but that is certainly better than rain. And the even better news is that we should be getting some decent snowfall through Thursday, perhaps the most coming in around tomorrow evening.
Top lifts at Happo-one and Tsugaike Kogen are closed at the start of the day; most of Goryu/47 seems to be opening. Other lifts might be affected.
