All's Good On The Northern Front

Peter [Rusutsu]: "missed the last report ... the snow is so good that we didn't get in until 7pm. Hasn't stopped snowing for 3 days now and will continue for the next week this weekend looks like massive snow."

Rosco [Niseko]: Rosco is calling yesterday "Groundhog Day" because "It hasn't stopped snowing for a few days now...this is more like it."

SpongeBob [Hakuba]: "The pow is back!! Skiing up to our waist! Hooray! HAKUBA has redeemed itself! Looking forward to first tracks tomorrow at Happo-one... And it's still snowing!"

So many photos I've had to cull, in order to give you a small spread of what's on offer:-

Let's start with Andrea in Rusutsu getting some air

Peter in Rusutsu

Scot in Rusutsu

Yes, it's second chair Scot ;-). How could we mistake that ski gear?

Some snow mobile/immobile action in the fresh, deep snow of Rusutsu

Happy Hakubas - more Thredbo regulars including yet another 'Peter'
along with SpongeBob, Kristen & Tim

And this is why they are happy in Hakuba

Snow monkey out on a ski run in Hakuba

And from Rosco: An off-piste bowl between Annupuri and Moiwa

And last but not least: some things to meditate upon after a full day of freshies
Curls & Sasa grass - from Rosco, naturally

And... - the sun is shining once more in Thredbo :-)

The Craft Beer Festival starts tomorrow at 12pm by the pool.
