Not the best of things to report this Christmas morning... it's raining and it's windy.

Unfortunately just the Number 2 pair lift is operating this morning due to the wind.

Come on Santa, we want snow.

The good news is that it should be snowing today and over the next few days too so we will soon be able to forget about the wet.

Fingers crossed!

Welcome to our new Geto Kogen Now daily reports section

Geto Kogen is a ski and snowboard resort in Iwate Prefecture in the northern Tohoku region of Honshu, the main island of Japan. It’s known for heavy snowfalls, quality snow and tree run courses. Hopefully we will be able to bring you some good snowy reports through this season.

For more information on Geto Kogen please check out these pages on SnowJapan:

As with all our daily ‘Now’ reports, the bottom line is that they are independent and honest – they are published by us, not by the resort. The new snowfall number is being measured at the base area of the resort.
