Posted on Monday 19th November 2012 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here.
Well, the weekend is over now and a number of people were out there enjoying their first slides of the season. Hakuba Goryu have decided to stay open as long as the snow will allow and the Gondola as well as the top No1 pair lift are both due to be moving today. Both Hakuba 47 and Happo-one will not be open today, so it is just Goryu.
Sorry I couldn't get that information out last night as intended - some of the work being done on upcoming updates to SnowJapan prevented me from being able to do that. (Lots of big changes coming!)
Anyway this morning we have lots of blue skies above the mountains, the sun is out and it is all looking very beautiful - the low lying clouds over the village area just adding to the dramatic scenes. It doesn't look like we can realistically expect much snow during the week, perhaps some up top tomorrow night and then later on in the week.
I'll update again in a few days.
