It’s sunny outside in Niseko town at 7 pm. Clouds are moving fast so it must pretty windy up there. I went to Grand Hirafu yesterday. Groomed snow was actually really good, I enjoyed high speed curving under the sunshine.
Another sunny day today but it’s much warmer than yesterday. It will go up to 11 °C today, wow!! I hope it won’t get too windy to stop the lifts. I might go Grand Hirafu again to enjoy slushy snow like a spring day.
Winter will come back and start snowing again on Wednesday.
