Yey! There's more fresh snow this morning with another good 15cm on the ground. It's cold and the snow looks nice and dry.

There's a decent 16cm of fresh snow on the ground this morning here at base; with most of that coming overnight.

Things are much improved this morning.

Yesterday it was something of a surprise to see the snow continuing to fall, wasn't quite expecting that and the clear up didn't really happen.

A bit of blue sky in the afternoon yesterday and a bit of snow to report this morning - 2cm. Yey!

And what do we have to report this morning? Another similar kind of story really this morning.

Good morning from here near Hirafu base, and this morning it is much the same as yesterday really.

I have 4cm of fresh overnight snow to report to you this morning.

I had a very good day yesterday and during 'lift time' on my 4 hours worth of adventure I spoke to people from China, US, UK, Finland, Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan and Thailand which was fun.

There's more fresh snowfall to report this morning.

This is what I like to see. 15cm measured by myself just a short while ago

It is nice and cold and I measured 19cm of fresh snow here at base. Good quality stuff too.

It's the last morning of the month and I am very pleased to be able to report 14cm of fresh snowfall on the ground here at base.

First of all, Happy (Chinese) New Year! Here's to a good one for all.
