Yesterday wasn't the best weather to end the season on (for the Naeba and Tashiro parts of Kagura), and this morning is a similar start to the day with low lying clouds and partly wet roads though it isn't raining at the moment. Today will see a top temperature of about 18 degrees in Yuzawa. It looks like tomorrow and the day after will be finer weather.

So now just the Kagura resort remains open, but they are still planning to keep the lifts moving until 27th May. Due to the snow conditions at Mitsumata, from now a shuttle bus will be taking people from the top of the Mitsumata ropeway to the bottom of the Kagura Gondola. The Mitsumata Ropeway will be open from 8:30am until 5pm from tomorrow until the end of the season (27th May).

We plan to post twice weekly updates to this Yuzawa Now! page until the end of the season at Kagura.
