Hey Rob, How was Seisenso? Just booked a few nights there for this winter. Haven't seen any reviews of it - hope I didn't make a mistake! Thanks ~Tom

My schedule's already pretty booked up for next winter, but I'll have my people get in touch with your people!

Thanks for that idea. I wasn't sure if those companies delivered outside the main cities, but now that I know it's possible, it seems like the way to go - and I won't have to get used to different skis...

My research popped a place called Shirakaba. Can anyone confirm that it is in Nozawa Onsen and that they do in fact rent tele gear? Any other info - cost, contact info (I saw the phoen numbers, but is there email?) - would be much appreciated! Thanks, Tom

Thanks for checking on that for me. I look forward to hearing what you find out! ~Tom

Hi, I'm just starting to look at a trip to Japan next winter w/ a combination of sightseeing and skiing. The ski area that piqued my interest is Nozawa Onsen. But, as I'm a tele skier, and don't want to carry my gear around for the sightseeing part, I wanted to make sure I could rent tele gear there. If not, could I rent it in Nagano on my way there? Thanks, Tom
