Good morning from Naeba.
The resort is reporting 15-20cm of fresh snowfall this morning. I am guessing that is higher up as I am measuring 6cm... but hopefully it will be building up as the snow continues today. There's a bit of a cold wind today too.
We can probably expect to see some sunshine tomorrow but heavy snow is coming our way late weekend. Thursday through the weekend is looking to be very promising indeed. Bring it on, I say. If we get that, Naeba should get to be 100% open pretty quickly.
