Did you enjoy powder yesterday? I tried Grand Hirafu Early morning yesterday. You can get early morning ticket for 500 yen and get 2 runs from 8:00 before the resort opens. Super course was still bumpy but soft and fun! Upper lifts were closed due to strong wind yesterday, there are tons of untouched snow today:)
A storm has gone and calm weather will continue for next week. Have a great day!!
