Posted on Saturday 4th April 2020 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.
Morning from Yuzawa.
The sun is out again this morning with blue skies and a kind of hazy feel. Definitely another warm spring day lined up.
We can perhaps expect some rain overnight tonight (with the chance of some snow higher up on the mountains).
Tomorrow is the last day of the season for the Naeba resort.
So that means that from Monday, we're down to just GALA Yuzawa and Kagura.
