Spring always draws decent number although the snow is past its powdery best. It's always amusing strolling through Yuzawa on a warm spring day, temperatures almost in the 30s and warm in a T-shirt, to walk past someone togged up for a day in the snow carrying their skis or snowboards. It is great to get up there in spring and see crowds basking in the sun on the deck at the top of Kagura Gondola.
It's a 6 month wait for the snow to come back again but Kagura is beautiful in the summer with some great hiking and the higher altitudes make a great escape when the weather gets hot and humid. There is even lodgings open up high if you are looking for some mountain accommodation - Wadagoya.
