At last, we have some more snow. Not much mind, just a dusting really but it started falling early this morning and hopefully it will continue over the next few days and into next week. Different forecasts seem to differ on what to expect, so I'll just sit back and see what happens I think.
Will have to wrap up well, because it has got real cold all of a sudden - well, certainly compared with the last week or so!
We obviously need a nice big delivery of snow to get the ski lifts into action.
Let's see what I can report to you tomorrow morning!
Planned opening dates for the different resort areas on the mountain:
Niseko Grand Hirafu - will open as soon as there's enough snow
Niseko Annupuri Kokusai - will open as soon as there's enough snow
Niseko Village - Monday 1st December
Niseko Hanazono - Saturday 6th December
