It has been a fantastic, beautiful day today in the region with clear blue skies all round. The fresh snow from over the weekend means that conditions high up are really good especially when you consider that we are right close to the end of March. More of the same clear conditions looks likely tomorrow as well after what should be another cold night.

Here's the latest on resort operations in the region...

Tanigawa Tenjindaira:
The resort is now open.

Marunuma Kogen:
Part open with No5, No3 and No1 lifts operating. Marunuma plans to be open until early May.

Norn Minakami:
No3 quad lift operating. Norn have an interesting offer going on - it seems that if you have a valid season ticket for a ski resort that has closed for the season due to the current circumstances in Japan, Norn will offer you a half price lift ticket for their resort. Please contact them directly for more details and any conditions.

Kawaba:
Two lifts operating at Kawaba.
