*24cm of fresh snow has fallen in the last 24hrs in Hirafu Village. At 7:00 today the temperature was -5°C.
Another massive dump overnight! Temperatures are extremely cold today with Kutchan expecting a top temperature of -5!
Conditions will be amazing again this morning. If you are heading up on the mountain don’t forget your face mask and an extra layer!
Yesterday was a lot of fun on the mountain and here is a gratuitous selfie video to prove it!
