I have just 1cm of fresh snow to report to you from base this morning.

It is a cold morning and there's fresh snow on the ground.

Good morning and a very happy new year to you all. May it be a good one for you and yours. And may it be full of fresh, fluffy, dry and light snow.

Good morning from Niseko on this New Years Eve morning.

I have 14cm of fresh snow to report this morning here by my base in Hirafu.

Just three more days left in 2016; the mind boggles at how fast things whizz by. (And how you actually spell 'whizz'!)

Yikes it was cold when I got woken up for some reason at 6am this morning.

Yesterday... it did get a bit too mild for snowfall and... it rained.

Good morning from Niseko and a very Merry Christmas to you all.

Good morning to you all and Merry Christmas!

Oh dear. It's raining.

Talking about white fluffy things, where's the fresh snow then?

There is just a small amount of snowfall to report falling since my report yesterday and it is looking like we're now going to have a run of a few days without any fresh.

A very good, cold and snowy morning to you from Niseko.
