Posted on Thursday 24th February 2022 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


We still have some light snow falling this morning, though in places it has eased off and it's actually quite bright. The sun is trying to break through. Maybe it will...


And it really probably will tomorrow and the day after.


Cold this morning and really great conditions.
