The winter weather pattern weakened and the wind has calmed down. The overall condition hasn’t changed much since yesterday.
Avalanche hazard is still not to be underestimated, especially in typical avalanche terrain in higher altitude.
Yesterday evening’s snowfall will consist a notable layer in the future snow accumulation and should be observed attentively in combination with today’s and the next few days weather transition.
Overgrown snowdrifts in south facing gully terrain, open steep faces or slopes with sudden gradient shift, such as the slopes under cornices in Higashi-One, are still very unstable and should not be stimulated. Traversing across those slopes is like deliberately causing a slide.
Avalanche risk is still to be highly considered today, carefully choose your touring route in all elevations.
Gate 1(L-ji), 4 (Fujiwara), 6 (Moiwa) and 7 (Ee-sawa) are scheduled to open at 9:30am.
Please follow the ski-patrol’s instructions.
