Iwatake / △35cm / Snowy2016.Dec.17
It started to snow from this early morning, the upper part of available snow fields had 10cm fresh snow. The ones who were snowboarding with spraying snow were from Chikuma, Azumino, Hakuba. The snow was enough hard to do ground tricks.

The snow in this early morning was layer of hard snow and fresh snow but shortly they got mixed and good condition to ski comfortably. I saw some beginners practicing carefully.

At East Gelande, most of bushes were covered with snow except for the bottom part, so I enjoyed wide slope. You have to be a little bit careful for grounds came out from snow but some of advanced people went down pretty well.

While the temperature kept low, it continued snowing this morning. I enjoyed the slopes with a bunch of ski tracks from noon. And also snow-cannons were working over areas which are still not opened.
