Myoko Kogen is a resort in Niigata (Japan) skied between 750 and 1517 metres, with 40 km of pistes and 20 lifts.
The camera shows real visibility and snow on the ground, not the forecast. Snow depth by altitude — 750 to 1517 m — and the days ahead are in the Myoko Kogen snow report.
Which lifts and runs Myoko Kogen opens is published by the resort every morning and changes with the wind: the upper ones, up to 1517 m, are the most exposed. If the camera is a white blur mid-morning, that is usually why.
