Posted on Tuesday 14th February 2023 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.


Yesterday wasn't the most inspiring of days, but this morning we can quickly refresh our minds with some fresh snow on the ground. We have just measured 15cm, both here in Yuzawa and just to the north near Ishiuchi.


Kagura are reporting 20cm early morning about an hour ago. They are also saying that the top Number 5 pair lift will be closed today (due to wind), as will the connecting course between Tashiro and Kagura. Yuzawa Kogen are saying that top lifts might be running slow due to wind too. Other exposed lifts might be affected, though there's no more specific news to be found as of 8:30am.


It is snowing now and hopefully it will be through the day today and tomorrow too.


Let's see how much we get!
