Tsugaike Kogen/ ◎205cm / Sunny2020.Feb.29
It was a great day for skiing and snowboarding. The snow made a squeaking sound when I stepped on outside Gondola Sanroku station. The compacted powder snow was firm and felt great in Tsuga-no-mori Slope. The snow along No.1 Pair (on the left side) was also compacted.

The powder snow was great not only in Tsuga-no-mori but also in Gotenaba Course. It was fun challenging natural waves as they were bigger than usual. I enjoyed skiing smoothly and fast on the lower gentle slope.

The snow was granular in the lower part of Hannoki but my ski ran smoothly with edges digging into the snow deeply. “We look forward to your reports. It’s a wonderful day today! We’re wearing a mask, goggles and gloves to prepare for coronavirus (haha).”, skiers from Ishikawa prefecture and Nagano city, Nagano prefecture said.

The snow was non-compacted in Kane-no-naruoka and Kane-no-naruoka No.2 Slope. Some bushes and ground were uncovered with snow in Kane-no-naruoka. The snow was not powdery, not granular, but nicely wet in Maruyama Slope (pictured). The slope was crowded with students and people taking lessons.
