Nozawa Onsen Snow Report – Tuesday

Another sunny day in the park

New Snow (Resort): 0cm
New Snow (Village): 0cm
Weather: Fine
Snow Depth: 225cm (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.

Another sunny day in Nozawa today, there is hardly anyone on the mountain and it is a beautiful place to enjoy peace, quiet and empty slopes. I drove through Iiyama today (the closest major town to Nozawa) and it felt very spring like. There is no snow anywhere, and the fields are already being prepared for planting.

We can expect more conditions like this for the rest of the week. Once you change your way of thinking and come to terms with the fact that there will be no more powder until next year, spring skiing is a lot of fun.
