Posted on Saturday 7th December 2019 This is an archived report. The latest Yuzawa Now report can be found here.
It was snowing yesterday and actually quite heavily from time to time in the morning, but just a bit more on the ground since my previous report. Kagura are reporting 3cm of fresh this morning.
The snow eased off later in the day. There is no more overnight and this morning we have cloudy skies over Yuzawa. The sun looks like it might even be trying to break through as well in places.
More of Kagura is open for the weekend - the are opening the Panorama and Family courses as well as the main course and they have the Number 4 pair lift operating too. Note the earlier opening times for the weekend.
Over at Naeba: they are opening this morning, just the base course.
