hi there. newbie here
gonna be heading up to niseko this year and being the superb planner that i am, everything in niseko is all booked out. ugh. so i'm stuck at this place 3K from hirafu.. sounds like middle of nowhere. the aussie cats said i could rent a car.. but not sure if i'd kill myself driving in that condition.. my other option is to cab everywhere.. ugh ugh..
thoughts? suggestions?

thanks everyone! i think im gonna stick with the shuttle / taxi combo .. car's turning out ridiculously expensive .. the shuttle timing is not so ideal in the evening, but i'd imagine some combination of taxi/bumming random rides will get me thru. im from new york city - never really haveta drive anywhere. :-\
