More of the Good Stuff

It was sad to see our early fall melt away under heavy rain last week. (The first fall almost always melts, but sad nonetheless!) Even worse news over at Kuro-dake, they were unable to open last weekend as they did not get that last push of snowfall.

Now for some good news, exactly 10 cm of it!

The next morning: we are reminded of Furano’s characteristic blue sky mornings. Pretty hard to resist hiking up. Kei from Furano Snow School is talking a walk to look at the accumulation by the top of the quad station.

The 10 cm is sticking to the hill, showing that earth temperatures have reached freezing.
