Good morning from Hakuba.
I am still not feeling myself this morning, but am happy to be able to quickly report fresh snowfall to you.
Hakuba Cortina - 30-40cm
Hakuba 47 - 20-25cm
Hakuba Goryu - 10-15cm
Hakuba Happo-one - 10cm
For all the genki folk out there...this morning should be good!
Note - seems the Gondola and top lifts at Happo are on hold at the start of the day due to wind.
Forecast looking good for decent snowfall over the coming week from Sunday.
