Lift pass

It was pretty good up in Nozawa. Great day yesterday

I'm off to Hakuba - anyone else?

Hit the 30 soon!

Most definitely May now. The last few days has made me feel much more positive about it all

7-11 gets my vote too. nekobi - really? That surprises me, the food I have got in the past from Lawson wasn't too good.

Quote: I like to stand my chopsticks in my rice just to be naughty. Doing it in front of my wife drives her strangely frantic. Why is that? It seems to drive J-people mad.?

Why oh why do I have to pay 105 yen to get my own money out of my bank on a weekend. And after 7pm. And why are most of them closed from 7pm until 9am, and at the weekends. It really gets on my nervers. I was just wondering what others thought. Back in the UK, ATMs are open 24 hours, and no cost.

The thing I find interesting about Arai is how little snow there seems to be in the immediate area at the base and Arai city. Then suddenly all that huge amounts of snow when you get to the mountain. In May its summer like at the bottom and loads of snow still up top. Fushigi.

Nice post. You sound like you should be keeping them, maybe put them in a case. Lots of memories in those boots, you know.

I was at Sugadaira yesterday, and it looked like 75% boarders to me.

Hi there You'll probably be hearing the work Niseko a lot...

zwelgen is it this weekend you're going up there? We're trying to get a last minute thing going here.

2-0 to Liverpool

Same here. But you need the energy for a day on the hills.

Probably same - April a few times and maybe once in May as the last time.

...Yuzawa this time! Can't decide on Kagura or Naeba but I think Kagura might be the one. Anyone know if that top lift is open yet or not?

That thing looks amazing. Can't wait.

I've never really been up against anything like that, but I've sure felt uncomfortable at times.

What's the record for this kind of thing?

Then, congratulations, you'll be part of the mainstream!

Great stuff ,always interesting reads. Cheers

Hakuba for me too.

Sugi is good,
