Outstanding! The bus would very probably be the best and most hassle free for you ippy. Presume you can get to Nagano easy and you're on the other side of Nagano, right?

Ahh yes too easy. Ishiuchi Maruyama it is. joshnii, next one!

This one may well prove to be an easy one

OK so my turn then

I'd say less to average here in Iiyama area.

Miinohara Kogen

Hopefully they have that top lift open now.

I think right now there won't be much powder to be found. The pressing concern is some fresh snow!

Nice snow today indeed Iiyama wins!

Poor SJ folk working through it seems http://www.facebook.com/SnowJapanWeb Gambatte!

Probably for a not dis-similar reason why they have cut back and all but given up on English-related stuff.

rider69 has done all the research and knows this, you see.

Of course they don't. The only concern that have is their own enjoyment and what they want to do.

Great stuff. (I wouldn't expect Shiga Kogen ones. Apart from the fact that they now apparently couldn't give two hoots about gaijin visiting, they have never really done that - difficult when so many resorts covered etc.)

Myoko doesn't open for another week, so I wouldn't go there.

It will depend on which webcams you are looking at. Nozawa looks nothing like whiteout.

Mike has promised to ship all of that snow down here to Nozawa in a few weeks, kokodoko. Sorry!

Well, it's just cloudy here in Iiyama and I suspect over in Nozawa as well. No crazy winds yet. The storm has either been delayed or decided to take a turn and miss us.

Shiga Koggez, either Yokoteyama or Terakoya.

Happo does and so does Goryu. 47 does not. That's what I know... others folks?

The ski resorts themselves don't know. They'll open when they can. The only thing you can do is keep looking at the forecast and the reports.

Let me just point out and strongly show my outrage that you would want any kind of anything in return for your services and free stuff. Good one there Metabo.
