Powder Hounds tucked their tails between thier legs today as Hakuba skies dealt a snowfall smack-down. Too much snow?!!! How dare we say it! Too much powder? Is it possible?

Well…I’m happy to report that the powder is still cranking in Hakuba. Another foot or so of fresh to fill in the tracks from the day before and some great visibility in the trees. Dropped some lines with Suzi who snapped away with her new toy – a telephoto lens.

Beautiful day and not a cloud in the sky so went to stretch my legs on top at Goryu. Was expecting dust on crust but found 15cm of fresh snow on a forgiving base. The pistes were in perfect condition! The weather this week is expected to stay sunny and mild followed by colder temperatures [...]

The temperatures have gotten a bit milder since, but just to [...]
