Tired of hearing about how much better it is in Japan than wherever you ski? Too bad, drink from the fire hose.

It snowed all night and continued to snow through today here in Hakuba. It was reasonably light, and face shots were happening on most turns. We got about 30-36 inches out of this storm, all told. The Sakka Trees were the place to be today, as seen in video above.

It looks like there may be some sun in the morning tomorrow, before another top-up over night. The tail end of the storm had quite a bit of wind, so be on the lookout for big wind slabs tomorrow.
