No, too much even before you went.

I'm going in February. I got invited. I will report.

I think lots of people AVOID the mountains at new year to avoid the crowds. It's so much better just after that period.

Good question... Anyone?

Yeah me too. Lets hope so. I did hear somewhere that rain was good for the hills pre-season. Oh, well actually I don't suppose I did.

Thats funny isn't it?

I reckon close to zero.

So, anyone go?

I think it's the extreme points that are non boarding (ie Okushiga and Yokoteyama)

You don't like Marunuma do you Ocean!?

How about Myok Suginodaira - that seems to have a great rep all round.

Definitely either good or not good. One or the other. Maybe.

Yeah I reckon it's possible, maybe not with the way the resorts go about it right now.

Tried it a couple of times then decided to have more fun

Sorry (just wanted to know - no bad meaning...!) and thanks!

At least twice a week, hoping for 3 times a week!

...in what way?

I find amazon.co.jp to be a bit slow at sending out. I pre-ordered something, and then on the day it got released the message turned into "available in 2-3 weeks". Cancelled the order and went to a local shop and bought it there and then. Not impressed. That may just be my unlucky experience...anyone think good of amazon.jp?

I think Bandai's a rockin'yama.

Plan for the 14th yeah. I will be in that region round then

I can get out a few weekdays as well. One of the bonuses.

And heres me thinking you were boarding, Markie

I believe one point being made was rather that not a large % of people do not want to go out now. Even if there is a meter. And I believe another point being made was that many people want to take their winter snow holidays in the peak of the season when rather than at the beginning and in spring.
