0 cm of new snow has fallen in the last 12 hours. I can see beautiful Mt. Yotei clearly.

I went to Niseko Village yesterday. I had my snow safety equipment and entered the gate 11, Mizuno sawa  first time of this season. There is a beacon checker at the gate and you can check if your beacon is working right. Snow was amazing and fresh much more than I expected. BUT the bottom part still needs some snow fall, it likes natural ski slalom made by ice.

Snow fall is forecast tonight. Don’t forget your camera and have a great day!!
