5 cm of new snow has fallen in the last 12 hours. Hopefully it’s more at higher part. It seems lots milder that yesterday. All of 3 resorts will finish the night time lifts tonight. Good to have the last night run and onsen after.

Today is another national holiday in Japan. It’s a substitute day for Sunbun as it falls on Sunday this year. I don’t know “Substitute day” is a world common system but I like it.

Winter cold weather continue for this week. Hopefully more snow is falling on Thursday!
