April 1st!
No jokes about huge amounts of fresh powder, though there are definitely huge amounts of pollen flying around at the moment with a lot of people suffering from hayfever - including myself. Seems really bad this year. If you do suffer from the Japanaese brand of hayfever - be aware that it's full on here at the moment.
Anyway enough about that, it's a fine and sunny morning in Yuzawa. A light northerly wind, and about 6 degrees now; high of 12 degrees expected in town. Similar conditions are forecast for tomorrow as well.
Today is the last day for the Yuzawa Park skijo area.
