Yesterday in the powder

PW3A8833

Our mountain was blessed with heavy snow all of yesterday morning, bringing our base up to 150cm and giving us a good 25cm of fresh powder to play with all day long. The skies cleared and left us with beautiful sunshine all afternoon.

The blue skies are here once again today, with temperatures sitting at a warmer -6 degrees and winds being practically nonexistent. Unfortunately there won’t be snow falling for a couple of days, but we’re hoping that the snowpack stays fresh and fast throughout these sunny few days. Looking ahead to next weekend, it looks like there will be some snow coming our way. We’re hoping the odds are in favour as the system makes it way to Nozawa Onsen.

Happy Australia Day to all our Aussie folk, and to everyone else, Do join in the celebrations!
