Greetings from Naeba,


Today kicks off with an excellent start as we clear away the light, fluffy snow from our cars in the morning. So far, we've accumulated a delightful 32cm at the bottom. The forecast promises continuous snowfall throughout the day, ensuring fresh powder for all.


Expect the upper parts to be shrouded in clouds, leading to decreasing visibility. However, at lower elevations, the conditions remain fair. It's shaping up to be a day filled with soft, pristine snow.


Happy skiing!


Sun is due tomorrow, to be followed by more snow on Monday and Tuesday. Hopefully there might be enough snow by mid-week for the whole mountain to open...
