Posted on Monday 24th December 2012 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


The snow has arrived and we're up above 1m of snow at some of the resorts around Shiga Kogen at last. Nice snow too, it's good and cold and if it continues to fall today we should get a decent amount from this. There might be a break in the snow overnight according the the local forecast but it will be back later Tuesday into Wednesday.


Thursday and Friday clearer skies are currently on the forecast and so a decent amount of snow over the next few is just what we need. Come on, bring it on Santa!


Nighta operations planned for tonight at the following resort areas:

Ichinose Family

Ichinose Diamond
