Posted on Saturday 8th December 2012 This is an archived report. The latest Nozawa Now report can be found here.


Uenotaira is open this morning as is the Bunabayashi course, with the Uenotaira Four lift operating this morning in addition to the Nagasaka Gondola and the Yamabiko quads.


It's trying to snow but we're not seeing the blizzard that we were hoping for just yet. It seems to have been slightly delayed somewhere, but we are still likely to see good snowfall overnight into tomorrow. As I write this though, it's not particularly windy out there.


I'll get back to you tomorrow with the latest!
