Hey everyone, me and a group of around 10 people are trying to find accomodation in Niseko Hirafu. I've had a good look at a lot of places and it seems that it would cost around $1000-1100 Australian to stay in a decent place in a good middle/upper village location (this includes 6 day lift pass and is after Febuary 20th so cheaper rates kick in). We are all pretty strapped for cash and was wondering if there are any places that you guys would recommend for cheaper or places that you would recommend in general for 10 people to stay at? I know there are cheaper places out there but im inte

Cheers neversummer thats some good advice!

G'day all, I'm going to Niseko this season for the third year in a row and was interesting in buying ski boots. Last year I had a look in a couple of shops in Kutchan and they all seemed pretty cheap in comparison to buying ski boots here in Australia. However as I'm sure you're all aware the Aussie dollar is not doing so well compared to the Yen. So my question is.. Roughly how much would a decent pair of ski boots be in Kutchan at the moment? I'd be looking at getting a pretty good pair. Here in Australia they are roughly around the $700 mark which is pretty steep.. Cheers!
