  1. Ok Ok Let me clear this up.

     

    I apprieciate your concerns ,and they are well founded. We have plenty of people die here in Aust. too from avalanches.

     

    I have been boarding for 15 years. in Autralia, New Zealand, USA Canada, (east and west) Scotland and Japan.

     

    Almost all of it on groomed runs and some off piste.

     

    The little bit of " Back country ' I have done has been with professional guides , group avalanche training and becons attached.

     

    As I said. I'm no hero and never take risks. I would not dream of going anywhere that I didn't know the way out or what was down there.

     

    Not every Australian that goes to Japan is going to hurl himself off a cliff or disppear into oblivion. Hence my inquiries on this forum about Asahidake.( the start of the topic )

     

    Would i be asking you guys these questions if I already knew it all already ?????

     

    I apprieciate the feedback and advice.

  2. Yer i think I'd like to give it a go . It would be nice to get away from the Aussie hordes at Niseko. Sometimes it's nice to sacrifice some on quality just to enjoy something different. Last year one of the best days i had was at Moiwa. Shorter flater runs but no crowds at all !! Freshhies all day.

    Whats the go with the Cat ? Does it take you from the top of the lift to even higher up or what ?
