Good morning from Hakuba.
I am happy to be bringing you news of fresh snowfall this Monday morning.
I have 4cm of fresh to report - been at both Goryu base and Happo base earlier on) and the ski resorts generally seem to be reporting 5-10cm of snowfall from base to upper areas this morning.
More snowfall is expected before my next report, particularly overnight, so I'll all revved up for that.
After another busy weekend it is Monday morning so there will be less people around today.
The Chinese New Year holidays are just ahead of us now with many good folk planning to be here to celebrate their holidays. It's going to be getting busier again... decent mountain-wide layers of fresh snow would be most welcome.
That's always welcome, of course!
