The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . Just a little bit of fresh snow overnight, after a pretty mild day. It wasn’t that warm, but there was a lot of melting on the streets (and splashing of slush on those working alongside, he says knowledgeably). It almost seems like the sun wants to come out at the moment, although it’s full cloudy at the moment. Today’s highlight is the Yama no Kami (Mountain God) ceremony/event at Akakan at 11am. The resort has made this small local event something for all visitors; come and join on the kampai! toast, and get a little wooden saké masu cup.

Independent snow and weather reporting from the Myoko region of Niigata New snowfall at base 11cm Snowfall at base this season 1542cm Posted on Saturday 8th March 2025 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here . Cold overnight here—it got down to nearly -9° here at the base, and was still -6° at 7am. The wind has died down, which is nice. Gives us time to clear out the drifts in places where the wind comes in from the north (like my house, which I nominate for worst designed entry in the greater Myoko area). It’s overcast with a very high cloud cover that is giving us good visibility, with the sun just trying to come out at times. I hear that some lifts were running intermittently yesterday afternoon when the winds were especially strong. While I know a lot of people don’t want a lot of major development here that would ruin the Myoko feeling, I do wish we could get some of the operating companies to put some money into aging lifts (and a wise editor of mine noted that this isn’t just a Myoko phenomenon, since there are a lot of 40-year-old lifts from the bubble days still churning along, if not always continuously). When the wind is too high, there’s nothing you can do about it, but too many lifts run a bit too erratically....
