Independent snow and weather reporting from the Niseko region of Hokkaido New snowfall at base 0cm Snowfall at base this season 27cm Good morning from Niseko. I have no fresh snow to report as we enter this important week. There seems to be some, but not a whole lot, lined up before the weekend. That will of course bring into question opening as originally planned on the 29th. I will let you know when we get more.

Independent snow and weather reporting from the Niseko region of Hokkaido New snowfall at base 4cm Snowfall at base this season 27cm Greetings from Niseko. There's not a whole lot to report at the moment as we continue to wait. A little more snow since yesterday but not major. Forecasts don't show any major snowfall blessing us over the coming week; maybe a bit more Tuesday night. The ski areas hope to open next Saturday, 29th November. Just one week! Oh yes, one interesting thing I saw yesterday as I checked out the Hirafu website. Niseko Tokyu Grand Hirafu has upgraded a ski lift, so we can look forward to a new posh 6-person ride soon. The new lift brings us an adjusted name! The Japanese name is キング第3シックス ('King Number 3 Six'). A little awkward sounding, perhaps, but kind of makes sense. For the English name of the lift, they are going with King Sixpack 3 (per official site and course map). I just looked up six pack and found the following meanings: 1) a pack of six cans of beer or soft drink held together with a plastic fastener 2) a person's set of visibly well-developed abdominal muscles My main thought was something along the lines of: if only there were some English-speaking people in the Niseko region that might help a Japanese company with their English translations. Slight amusement and chuckles aside, it will be fun to ride the new ski lift, yey! Hopefully soon!

Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano New snowfall at base 0cm Snowfall at base this season 782cm Posted on Wednesday 30th April 2025 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here . Good morning from Hakuba. After some strong winds yesterday that ended up messing up with multiple lifts and stuff, today should be much more pleasant and pleasing. Indeed, we have blue skies and sunshine, less wind, and the same expected tomorrow too. Funny: you can still slide back to base at Hakuba 47 on their narrow course, but they 'strongly advise' people to use the gondola back down! I think it's a bit of a pride thing; they traditionally want to keep that open for as long as possible every year. Indeed, they do it well! Unfortunately we look set to get rained on Friday through Sunday, at least at times, but we can hope that the last two days of the season (Monday and Tuesday) might feature nice weather. Today through Friday... normal weekdays in the middle of a Golden Week sandwich. Saturday through Tuesday... national holidays. -------------------------------- ABLE Hakuba Goryu Official snow depth: Upper: 200cm Lifts operating: Goryu Telecabin gondola Alps Number 1 pair Alps Number 2/4 pair Alps Number 3 pair Courses available: Panorama Grand Prix Super Technical Only upper areas remain open and you need to take the gondola back down to base Planned closing date: Tuesday 6th May 2025 ---------- Hakuba 47 Winter Sports Park Official snow depth: Top: 205cm Base: 20cm Lifts operating: Gondola Line A-B pair Line C quad Line E pair Courses available: All open apart from Tree Riding Zones and Lower R7 You can still ski/board back down to base!

The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here . Greetings from Hakuba on this Children's Day national holiday. After an uncharacteristically chilly day yesterday, it looks like it should be a nice day weather wise and a little warmer. All Happo-one lifts are tagged as being 'on hold' early morning due to what they report as being windy conditions up top. Hopefully that will change and they will be able to open. The lifts at the other ski areas seem to be scheduled to open as planned (at time of this report). Tomorrow is the last day of the season for all four of the ski areas that remain open. Forecasts tell us to expect cloud and rain in the afternoon. My last report, too. On Wednesday morning, I plan to sleep in and be completely lazy until lunchtime!

Independent snow and weather reporting from the Hakuba region of Nagano New snowfall at base 0cm Snowfall at base this season 782cm Posted on Tuesday 6th May 2025 This is an archived report. The latest Hakuba Now report can be found here . Good morning from Hakuba on this last day of the 2024-2025 season. Happo-one, Goryu, 47 and Tsugaike will be finishing up for the season at the end of today. They could all probably remain open beyond today in terms of remaining snow. I was going to write a ton of words about this past season. To prepare for that, since last week I have been reading through all of the daily reports I have posted since November 2024. It was actually a lot of fun looking back and I recommend the same to you. There's nothing like the feelings at the time as it was all happening. So I decided not to write a bit long essay. But what a season it has been here in Hakuba! If you look at the snowfall statistics over the years (here), I observed more snowfall (* at base *) this last season than any other season since the data started to be collected over 12 years ago. December 2024 in particular brought us some fantastic snowfall and it really set the tone for the season as a whole. Thankfully, the snow didn't dry up as we got into 2025. Good times. We can only hope that 2025-2026 is as good. Anyway, like I said, I recommend looking back over the reports and also checking out the archive data in this section. Thank you for reading. I hope you enjoyed following the reports. I did my best trying to find good up-to-date information every morning (not always successfully). Hopefully my occasional frustrations were bearable! See you in November 2025 as we once again look forward to fresh snow. ---------------------------- PS! Just for fun, here is the final 'total snowfall' totals for the season, as published on the Hakuba Valley official website: Hakuba Happo-one: 1248cm Hakuba Cortina: 1159cm ABLE Hakuba Goryu: 1130cm Hakuba Norikura: 1105cm Hakuba 47: 1061cm Sanosaka: 880cm Hakuba Iwatake: 558cm Jigatake: 553cm Kashimayari: 429cm Tsugaike: 415cm Poor old Tsugaike with only 415cm! Obviously, that Tsugaike data is almost comically incorrect - it's hard to believe just how wrong it is - but it also makes me question the reliability of the others. If I had one wish for next season - other than massive amounts of snow - it would be that ski areas and official sources realise the importance of providing good and clear information for their visitors early each morning. Bye for now.
