I was just reading some of the other reports to see how they were doing... it looks like Japan is having a very nice early season.
18cm of fresh snow to report to you this morning here in Zao and snow is still falling.
I don't have official news regarding ski lifts starting to move, though there are whispers of a Saturday (25th) opening. With more snow due around Friday, I'd say it was a possibility.
