This morning I am happy to report that the roads in Marike have a new coating of snow and are all white and it is snowing. Resorts around the area are reporting 5cm or so of fresh snow and while we had some stronger winds overnight it is somewhat calmer at the moment. Wind might be an issue today though, especially in some more exposed areas. Hopefully we will see snow continue to fall today and perhaps into tomorrow as well. It should be remaining cold as well until around Tuesday when clearer clouds are likely.

Nighta operations this evening planned at the following resort area:

- Ichinose Family
