New snowfall at base 27cm
Snowfall at base this seas 900cm
Posted on Saturday 5th February 2022 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.
This morning feels much colder and mid-winter like than the last run of days. And we have just measured 28cm of snowfall with much more due throughout the day today and tomorrow. It's really coming down at the moment so piling up quickly.
It looks like there has just been a snow slide over at Kagura which is causing the connection between Kagura and Tashiro to be closed. The Area 51s Park at Mitsumata is also closed. Over at Yuzawa Kogen, the downhill course is closed due to avalanche risk.
From what we can tell other ski areas are open as planned this morning.
There's some risky conditions today with more of the same due tomorrow. Take care out there.
