Good morning from Naeba everyone!
As of yesterday morning, we had received 7cm of new snow in Naeba town which was a nice thing to wake up to!
There's a lot of snow in the forecast, especially this Friday, so my prediction is for a fairly good amount of snow for opening.
Fingers crossed please everyone.
Naeba will open this Saturday 9th December.
Hopeful!
Planned opening on Saturday:
- Prince Number 2 Gondola
- Number 4 romance lift
- Number 5 high speed lift
- Takenokodaira romance lift
- A lower area and the top Takenokodaira area plan to be open (* not skiable top to bottom)
