Winter is back! It started snowing around 10pm yesterday evening and forecast tells us that it should continue to do so throughout the day. Up to 20cm have accumulated in the village and on the slopes. Strong winds might cause the Gondola and Yamabiko lifts to stop.

Best conditions to find today at Challenger as the winds there are usually not that strong.

There are now two snowparks at Uenotaira Gerende, one on the left side of the halfpipe when you get off Hikage Gondola. For the second one take Uenotaira Quad and go down the flat Uenotaira slopes. You'll see it on your right then. Looks pretty nice to me.

The halfpipe will remain closed today.
