It looks like dusting snow just started falling.
It was a beautiful day yesterday. Snow was a bit heavy but fresh and so white, sky was clear and deep blue. I saw lots of people were hiking up to the peak from the gate and drawing beautiful lines. Kiroro side got more snow this morning so it might be a good idea to check Kiroro today.
Heavy snow fall is forecast tonight.
