More snow since yesterday - probably about 15cm or so - but thankfully the strong winds have died down. It is however a very cold and icy morning with temperatures right down to around -8 at the moment and colder still higher up. With snow falling visibility is also variable but very poor in certain areas. At least the winds aren't blowing it around as much as they were the last few days.

Snow depths are gradually getting better. With the fresh snow over the last few days though there are some good conditions out on the slopes at the moment.

(It seems that Okushiga Kogen is closed today, though currently we are not sure why that is).
