Posted on Tuesday 28th December 2021 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.


The snow clouds are still with us, but might be taking a break from later today and tomorrow... only to be back on the last few days of the year.


Varying amounts in different areas, but since yesterday over 30cm of new snow in my spot. Yakebitaiyama are this morning reporting 50cm of fresh; Kumanoyu reporting 30cm.


It's cold and the snow is excellent condition. It should be really great out there this morning. Especially if it gets a bit clearer!
