Warm morning without new snow. I wend to Grand Hirafu yesterday and hiked up to the peak from gate 3. I had an amazing run at Fujiwara from the peak! Snow was untouched, light and deep.
It will be a bit hard to find fresh snow in the resort today. If you already miss it, hiring a local powder guide is the best way to find it easy and safely. I miss groomers so I will go to Annupuri and enjoy curving on beautiful corduroy.
Snow fall is forecast for this afternoon and tonight. Please drive carefully.
