Good morning.
I am very happy to be able to report 14cm of fresh snow this morning.
There is a nice new layer out there and the snow clouds have dispersed (for now at least) with quite a bit of blue sky early on.
The mountain is looking very tempting and while I am sure some people will have had a late night in Nozawa last night (for the Fire Festival over there), people able to enjoy first tracks this morning will most certainly feel getting up early is worth it.
Count me in!
