Good morning from Shiga Kogen.


We're enjoying a bit of sunshine right now, in between bouts of snowfall. Not much since yesterday but we're expecting a bunch of snow over the weekend still. Starting tonight.


If we are lucky wind won't cause any lift disruptions and we can just enjoy the cold and fine snow conditions. It will be cold though so need to get plenty wrapped up.


Bring it on, I say.
