Yesterday a mind boggling amount of snow came down throughout the day amazing even seasoned locals. The evening night session in Hirafu was rumored to have been the best in years ( a big call ).

In years to come this day will be the stuff of legend – songs will be written about today…concepts born…minds blown…GET UP THERE!
