Independent snow and weather reporting from the Naeba region of Niigata New snowfall at base 7cm Snowfall at base this season 1141cm Posted on Thursday 20th March 2025 This is an archived report.

Tomorrow should also be sunny and warmer. ---------------------------- Official snow depth: Summit: 310cm Base: 200cm Scheduled lift operations: Prince Number 2 gondola Number 3 high speed lift (quad) Number 4 high speed lift (quad) Number 5 high speed lift (quad) Number 4 romance lift (pair) Takenokodaira romance lift (pair) * Top lift closed due to safety reasons (avalanche risk) * Note: the Hiuchi Number 1 pair lift will not be operating this season due a mechanical issue Courses scheduled to be open: 15 of 24 runs available.
