A beautiful clear day in Nozawa. The sun is shining, the wind is low and there is still plenty of snow at the top. As per all this week the top of the resort only is open and the snow is pebbly because of the warmer weather. The beginning of April also heralds the beginning of lift ticket discounts. The temperature at the top is currently 0C. The base depth remains 150cm. The views down the valley are exceptional and there is plenty of fun to be had yet.

The outlook is for mainly fine weather over the next few days with patches of light snow on the mountain and rain in the village. Winds will remain very low and conditions in general will be quite good.
