It’s a beautiful day in Nozawa, with not a cloud in the sky and perfect views in every direction. It is quite crowded though, with lines for the Nagasaka Gondola stretching down the stairs and along the road until mid morning.

This won’t last for long, tomorrow the weather is due to move in again with heavy snow set to continue into the new year.
