Morning from Naeba.
There has been more fresh snow and it is still snowing lightly this morning.
Wind is still an issue too, with the Number 1 gondola scheduled to be up and running today but not starting yet, along with the top Takenokoyama pair lift.
Still, this recent snow has really freshened conditions up and it almost feels like mid-season. And interestingly there is snow likely over the coming week from time to time. My main wish after fresh snow is for temperatures to remain low. That would be a big help.
There will be fireworks tonight after night skiing.
