Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata

Snowfall at base this season 1090cm

Posted on Saturday 11th April 2026 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.


Counting down, and watching the skies clear (and the slopes turn brown). Akakan has the Myokokogen Sky Cable gondola and Hotel No. 3 lift running (and the animation just started moving as well as I write this). Seki Onsen is open, and will be celebrating its 100th anniversary with a fireworks festival tonight. Lotte Arai has two and maybe three lifts running. Could be pretty warm again today.
