Happy New Year!


Here we are into 2014 already. Why does time seem to speed up so much once the winter season gets underway!


A lovely sun peeking up over the mountains earlier on this morning (the photo below coming to you from Maiko Snow Resort), and while the sun is still managing to show itself at times, the skies have clouded over more and that looks likely to continue.


No new snowfall being reported from around the resorts in Yuzawa since yesterday but we are hoping that snow will come today. There's even talk of rain before the snow - and it is keeping quite mild at the moment - but we can only hope that doesn't happen.
