  1. My first time to Japan as well doing 5 days at Niseko, 6 at Rusutsu..... then 6 free days somewhere.... and finishing with 4 days at Asahidake. We are strong advanced skiers and also keen for back/slack if the snow is better on the day. Any thoughts on somewhere cool in the early/mid January time frame would be great
  2. Thanks for the advice. We will be bringing all of our own gear to Japan. Happy to provide for my own safe travel without a guide just trying to determine if the worst were to happen are we on our own? I am confused EPIRBS are illegal in Japan? Is there anyone heading out for a hike on a regular basis that uses something besides a local phone? Cheers –Dan-
  3. Hi All First trip to Japan and I would like to do some back country skiing. How do emergency coms work? I will be in Hokkaido. I understand cheap prepay mobiles are not available, can you hire an epirb? Preparing for safe travel beacons, shovels, probes, first aid ect. Just want to know if I can cover my butt if it goes pear shaped or is there no BC rescue available? Thanks in advance -D-
