Morning from Naeba.


It started snowing again early morning and is still incoming, probably until this evening.


Night skiing should start from Saturday. I would expect more of the mountain to be open then too, especially if we get more snow.


Look to Sunday and Monday for the next big 'significant snowfall'...
