Posted on Sunday 29th December 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here.
Just a small amount of snow since my report yesterday and this morning the skies are clear and blue.
It's a cold start too.
Should be a real feel-good morning and the snow should be good too.
More areas of Shiga Kogen are now opening - it actually looks like the majority of lifts are now moving looking at the official site - but the following areas remain unavailable: Shibutoge, Giant, Nishitateyama, Higashitateyama and Terakoya.
The Terakoya pair lift is moving as a connecting lift and I believe the Higashitateyama gondola is also operating for connection purposes.
Next snow is due on Tuesday. One more decent snowfall and let's hope we can declare 'all open!'.
These areas are currently part open, subject to change:
- Sun Valley
- Maruike
- Takamagahara Mammoth
- Ichinose Family
- Ichinose Diamond
- Tannenomori
- Yakebitaiyama
- Okushiga Kogen
- Terakoya
- Maruike
- Hasuike
- Kumanoyu
- Yokoteyama
