Good. I'm happy to be able to report that it is much colder this morning in Zao. That's a relief, it was feeling like late March yesterday afternoon. Hopefully a blip.

And it's looking more encouraging now. Light snow falling at the moment, snow forecast on and off for the next few days along with cold temperatures. And then snow again on Saturday, possibly heavy snow. That sounds good.

Just an update on the Yokokura Wall run... still closed and while the resort hasn't said so, I am hearing that they are not hopeful of opening it again this season. That's just rumour though it would seem - for now, it's just closed.
