Hello from... Nagano city.


Yes, I'm away from Shiga Kogen right now and so going on what my friend just told me and webcam stuff.


When I left yesterday it was mild, sunny and a bit windy too.


We're back to more wintery like weather this morning with a bit of a dusting of snow on the ground.


Two ski areas remain part open:


Yokoteyama: Number 3 pair lift.


Kumanoyu: Number 2 pair B lift.


I'll be back in Shiga Kogen from next week. After that, I should be there for pretty much all winter.


Forecast for next week are looking promising. Heavy snow Wednesday onwards? Yes, please. Let's have some of that!
