Weather: Fine
Snow Depth: 230cm (Yamabiko)
Outlook: More fine weather for the rest of the week.
Open Areas: Yamabiko and Uenotaira are open. To get down the mountain you can slide right down to the Kandahar lifts and take a shuttle bus back to Nagasaka.
The weather has been wonderful the last few days. Perfect blue skies and no wind, its almost warm enough for only a tshirt up there. The mountain is pretty much deserted at the moment, and although the snow is slushy there is still plenty of fun to be had. This week is the last that Uenotaira 4 lift will be running on weekdays. From the 12th it will be weekends and Golden Week (week of public holidays here in Japan) only. The season wraps up for good after golden week at the beginning of May.
Fine weather is forecast for the next week.
