Posted on Monday 25th February 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


A cloudy morning and less wind after that somewhat stormy weekend.


We have had over 50cm of new snow over the last few days and with the wind there are places where there's more than that piled up. Fantastic snow quality though and a great way to approach the end of February.


Actually I said a cloudy morning but I'm getting to see more blue sky as well now and the sun is out at the moment.


Looking ahead, we are due a run of clearer and brighter days along with milder temperatures though fingers crossed it remains suitably cold keeping the snow in top condition.


For today though it's a cold cold start to the day.


Nighta operations planned for tonight at the following resort areas:
