Lotte Alai Resort in Ryozenji, Myoko City, Niigata Prefecture, celebrated the opening of the city’s earliest ski resort on Friday, March 16.<\/p>\r\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\r\n

Snow has been falling on the slopes since Wednesday, March 14, and the Zedana station, located near the top of the 950-meter-high mountain, has accumulated about 110 cm of snow.<\/p>\r\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\r\n

Currently, two courses for intermediate and advanced skiers, with a maximum length of 1,400 meters, are available.<\/p>\r\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\r\n

In conjunction with the opening, about 20 people, mostly foreigners, enjoyed their first slopes on skis and snowboards from 8:30 a.m. this morning.<\/p>\r\n

Visitors
\r\nThis is the first time this year. It was foggy, but the snow was lighter than I expected. I want to ski about 30 times this season.
\r\nA family member said, “I came here to ski with my family, and I was nervous because it had been a year since I had skied here. I hope there will be more snow on the lower slopes.
\r\nI came here for the first time from Australia. The snow quality is very good. I want deep snow, so I hope there will be more snow.<\/p>\r\n

According to the ski resort, there were about 100 visitors in the morning.<\/p>\r\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\r\n

Other courses will be opened as soon as snow accumulates.<\/p>\r\n

Lotte Alai Resort asks that visitors always enjoy skiing within the restricted area, as there is still not enough snow to cover the course.<\/p>\r\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\r\n

Akakura Kanko Resort is scheduled to open tomorrow, Saturday, the 18th. Please check the opening schedule of other ski resorts on their websites.<\/p>\r\n
