I bring good news this Sunday morning.
Not only further snow, but a confirmed opening date!
Yes, Nozawa Onsen is now heading towards an official opening on Tuesday 30th November.
They plan to have the Nagasaka Gondola and two Yamabiko quad lifts operating, the gondola starting at 8:45am. Yamabiko A, B, C, D and E courses will be available. Sounds great! They were talking about 50cm or so of snow up on those areas yesterday with the snow machines helping nature along. There has been more since then so conditions are probably going to be really quite decent. Always great to report that before we hit December.
Slightly warmer temps are due over the next few days before a return to the chance of snow later in the week.
Nozawa Onsen will open on Tuesday 30th November.
