10 cm of new snow has fallen in the last 12 hours.
New snow is not enough amount to cover tracks but snow condition is still good in cold temperature. Best condition for improving your turns and curving. If you are looking for more powder, you need to hike up and find it. Local guides know where the best powder is hidden.
Are you interested in *IAIDO*? It’s an art of drawing the Japanese sword. Shiki will have an exhibition tomorrow from 4 pm. http://shikiniseko.com/news
