Experience Niseko Snow Report: 20th December 2017

20 December, 2017 Sofie Lahtinen

Another lovely morning here in Niseko-Hirafu with more fresh snow in the lead up to Christmas.

It's now only five sleeps until Christmas Day and we've received even more snow over the past 24 hours here in Niseko. Another 22cm of snow was measured today, bringing our total snowfall for this season to over five metres.

The official accumulative snowfall is sitting at 504cm.

New snow record yesterday with 36cm (records are red line pictured).

With snow forecast every day this week it looks like we're in for a very snowy Christmas!

Australian-born and Euro-blooded, Sofie has been living in Niseko since 2016. When she's not behind a desk, she gets her kicks from yoga, cycling, Mother Nature, and as a self-confessed 'speed-demon', riding anything with wheels or a motor is top of the list. Sofie's perfect day ends by getting red-faced in an onsen, then polishing off a bowl of Hokkaido's famous soup curry (yes, it's a thing!).
