CptSlow replied to brynski's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
I will be there but not for the season just some weeks, would be cool to meet some of you and be shown around if you were up for it?? Also just did some numbers, do you guys think 290,000YEN for 3weeks is plenty, will be eating out drinking and doing a wee bit of shopping in Tokyo for a few days, everything is paid for thats just spending eating and drinking... -
