The latest Shiga Kogen Now report can be found here . Today is the last day of operations for the Yokoteyama Number 2 lift. From tomorrow, we'll be down to two lifts still open: Yokoteyama Number 4 pair lift: until late May Shibutoge pair lift: until 25th May The snow might be getting limited on those remaining few slopes, but there are still people keen to keep on going as long as possible. The Shibutoge lift should be open until next Sunday and Yokoteyama might be open beyond that. I'll post again when there's any further news to report. In other news, the section of Route 292 connecting Shiga Kogen with Kusatsu in Gunma will finally be able to full open from Thursday 22nd May. That's good to hear - it is about a full month later than planned (due to snow slide).

Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata New snowfall at base 0cm Snowfall at base this season 1103cm Posted on Saturday 29th March 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . Starting the last weekend with all the ski areas open; spring has really hit, and we're just watching the snow slowly retreat. Lots of good snow out there, though, and nice weather to enjoy it today. Sunny, pleasant temperatures and just some very light breezes. Tomorrow doesn't look so good, though, with rain, and maybe even a little snow late in the day, possible. I think you know when to go out.... About this season: It's been a strange one, to be honest. It looked like we'd lose most of our snow a couple of times throughout the season, with warm weather, wind and rain, but then the snow always seemed to come back. There was good powder out there, for sure; it just never seemed very 'Myoko-y' (meaning days of snow falling so heavy you can't see). Lots more international visitors this season, and they seemed to come from all over. Lots of Europeans - which surprised the locals - lots of Australians, of course, and no real troubles at all. Many people told me that they came here because they really wanted to visit Japan and enjoy the culture, not just ski (but they did want good deep snow, of course). Maybe that's why people were pretty respectful, friendly and nice. So a lot of change for us here, but not unpleasant change. We also had a lot more people getting into trouble by skiing where they shouldn't, and it wasn't all the imports doing it, either. Plenty of Japanese riding off course and into the wrong places. I hope more people learn that sidecountry really is backcountry, in that you can get killed in an avalanche just off the lifts as easily as way out in the hills. Trees are just as hard, too. Anyway, a kind of strange season, but a good one, and it's not completely over yet (see below). Official info: Akakura Kanko: 250cm Spring operations: Currently all lifts except Champion No. 1 are operating. From this weekend the Myoko Kogen Sky Cable gondola and hotel No. 3 lift will stay open until May 6, or whenever the snow runs out.

The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . That's it folks... all of the ski lifts in Myoko at a standstill and we're all done for another season. In case you missed it, we did post a bit of a season review back at the end of March - seems a long while ago now! On to the rest of spring and summer; or as they say the "Green Season". The Myoko Now reports on SnowJapan will be back to say hello again in the autumn when things start to get chilly and snowfall is on the horizon. Remember if you are planning on visiting Myoko, the weather forecasts on the resort pages of SnowJapan continue right through the year, so you can check up on the weather there. Links to the resort pages can be found in the right column of this page (that bit called 'Nearby snow resorts'). And of course Myoko Now reports from this past season and seasons before that are online to check too. In the meantime I hope you have a fine summer and see you later in the year.

The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . A good blast of snow overnight; not as much as it seemed we would get, as it was really coming down in the early evening yesterday, but still a good snowfall. 20cm clocked in the report. Some pretty strong wind as well, making all the trees white. Looks like we're in a birch forest this morning. Temperatures are staying nice and cold as well, and should stay that way through the weekend. Snow is on the forecast as well—it's occasionally sunny this morning, which it shouldn't be as we have clouds in all direction and a forecast of snow. Might even get some heavy snow on Sunday, your trusty SnowJapan forecast says....

The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . It was a scary sight last night, as a bit of precipitation began falling just as it got dark - and it wasn't snow. Luckily, that very light rain soon turned to snow, and we got perhaps 10cm of fresh stuff by morning. Hard to tell what it's going to do today. It's cloudy, and the forecast says we might indeed have some light rain tomorrow, as the freeze line moves way up the mountain. So far this year rain forecasts have resulted in snow, so let's hope for the white stuff, at least from the base of the resorts up.

Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata New snowfall at base 30cm Snowfall at base this season 606cm Posted on Monday 27th January 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . After a good day of snowfall, and some pretty strong winds, things quieted down this morning for a beautiful, sunny day and just great snow. Faithful readers will know I like it better when it's snowing, but today it's just perfect on the slopes: soft, sparkly snow, trees loaded with fresh white, a warm sun and a temperature staying in the minus. This could convince me that bluebird days are as good as many people say (of course, we will need more powder again soon....). The official snow reports are still all over the place; I think Akakura Onsen is the closest to reality with 30cm (I've complained to the town about late/incomplete reports; the ski areas are submitting and putting on their own websites, but it's nice to have them in one place. And early in the morning, too).

The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . A perfectly sunny day today, and a chance for visitors to finally see the mountain. Of course, snow doesn't magically appear on the hills (in other words, give me socked-in, full-blown snowfall anytime), but I'll agree it does look absolutely beautiful out there. The temperatures are still in the minus range, but the word from national TV this morning is for highs in the end-March range. It could be pretty warm out there later in the day. For the backcountry, that does set off some alarms. First as the snow melts and softens, and then again when the temperatures get cold and fresh snow falls on that melt layer. Keep an eye out and check out the snowpack carefully in the coming week, as things change. I am at home and late today, so all the snow reports are officially in today.

The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . The fog of yesterday did turn to snow, with some pretty nice snowfall high up on the mountain. This morning the snow is falling in real Myoko style - it looks like a heavy drizzle and fog, but it's all snow. We haven't had so much accumulation yet, maybe 20cm at base, but if it keeps going at the same rate we could see a good coating of new fresh. An excellent day to be out skiing, which I intend to do. The nutty snow figures continue, with some areas reporting up to 40cm, others telling us nothing has fallen (or the level has even dropped). For the record I am logging my observed 20cm.

The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . They said it would snow a lot last night - come to think of it, this writer may have made a similar hint - but only a light dusting overnight. What it is doing out there is hard to tell, with a soupy fog now hanging over everything. No wonder one of the local dishes is kiri shita no soba (under-the-fog soba noodles). I hope that means a change in the weather, namely more snow. We're still low this year, and could use a good blast to fill in the valleys and cover the small trees. In our ongoing demand for good information, there was no official report from the town yesterday, and the Tourist Office website still has never been dated for three areas this entire season... yes, folks, I'm going to appeal to higher powers.

The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . Snow. Lots of snow. Not typical Myoko snow either, with cold temperatures making it nice and light. The official reports don't really reflect it yet, but we're seeing about 40cm at the base of Akakan, and it's continuing to fall at a rate of maybe one to two centimeters per hour (yeah!). If you prefer sunny skies, this is not your day; if you like powder snow, get out there! It's mostly calm, too, but there are some big blasts of north winds coming through from time to time that could make a chairlift ride more refreshing....

Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata New snowfall at base 35cm Snowfall at base this season 494cm Posted on Saturday 18th January 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . It's starting out clear and cold this morning, with a beautiful pink sunrise and -9°C on the car thermometer. About 30-40cm of super-light powder fell through the day and into the early evening yesterday. It looked at moments like there could be a lot more, but the really heavy load looks more likely for tonight (and clouds are already forming over the ocean to the north). Good for me, as we'll be climbing today and 40cm of fluffy powder is a lot easier to get through than 70cm of solid Myoko powder. All the official reports below are from yesterday; with reports coming out at nearly 10 in the morning, it's hard to keep things timely. I'm measuring myself here at the base of Akakan, so at least you know how much fresh there is, and you can add to your favorite resort accordingly.
