The sky is covered by altostratus clouds and warm this morning. I went to Grand hirafu and Hanazono yesterday. It was colder than I thought and snow was nicely hard for good curving.
It might be windy at upper mountain today. I will stay at lower area and have fun on slashy snow.
8 years has passed since the Great East Japan Earthquake today. 3.11 always reminds me that we live in the country which has many earthquakes. In memory of the victims and convey our deepest sympathies, candles will be right up at tonight in many places in Niseko.
New snow fall is forecast for tonight. I hope we will be back in white world.
– Maiko :)
