We woke to a perfect sunny morning, the first truly spectacular morning of the season so far. Views over to the Myoko volcano were something that had to be seen to be believed with an intense alpenglow radiating off the peak in the early morning light. With the depth and quality of snow we have in Nozawa Onsen at the moment, the riding will sure to be top notch. Make sure you pack the cameras to capture the views from the summit!
Yesterday was so so epic. Deep perfect snow. Amazing. Again, the best day of the season so far. Outstanding groomers and the trees were as perfect as they get, apart from the sketchy avalanche conditions. A 60-70cm crown was spotted just off piste. Make sure you never ride alone and carry the necessary equipment for self rescue.
According to the forecast we should expect clear conditions all day today before snow showers set in, predicted to fall on and off all week long. The most intense snowfalls are expected of Thursday at this stage.
