Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata

Posted on Saturday 24th January 2026 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.


We’re back on with snow! Not a lot yet, but it’s coming down nicely now, and looks to keep coming more heavily for two days, at least.


It's still a bit dense—lots of little particles that like to stick together pretty well, more of a concern for the backcountry folks. But should be great skiing.


In fact, its time for me to take new young large (overly energetic) dog for a run at the local resort (Kurohime) that has dog-accessible lifts. More on that coming....
