The longest wait I had for a lift was....wait for it......... 30seconds!! It was sweet!! Blue sky, sun out and hardly another person in sight...great!! Nice - sounds like it's good in both summer and winter! Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 It was a quality day out. I don't think it had snowed for a day or 2 so another fall would be great but I had a ball Link to post Share on other sites
tsondaboy 0 Posted January 21, 2008 Author Share Posted January 21, 2008 It was not that busy for kagura standards, but busy none the less. At least no major lift lines, and was snowing all weekend! Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 It didn't snow at madarao, but was clear for most of the day, got some awesome views of the surrounding mountains. Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Kagura today was beautiful - all morning the snow was falling but visibility wasn't poor - it was shocking! maybe 5 metres in front of you...if less? But there were no crowds and the only problem was the time it took some of the gondolas to get to the top. Came off the slope at about 3:30 due to the stupid bus - but even then was still riding some powder 'on-piste' Link to post Share on other sites
tsondaboy 0 Posted January 22, 2008 Author Share Posted January 22, 2008 I thought it would be nice today, it started snowing heavily again yesterday afternoon. 5 meters visibility is pretty much standard for kagura. Link to post Share on other sites

pie-eater 207 Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Poor Kagura 07/08 thread! I went today. Fantastic weather, in fact I think I am going to be bright red come tonight. Snow was great. Perhaps not as amazing as I was expecting but still great. Very few people out there. I put these in another thread but thought they should live here too. Pics of the untouched mountains all around Kagura. Link to post Share on other sites

OkemoLoon 0 Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 I guess FT already noticed it in another thread, I would say that is a pretty big reason it is so untracked! Link to post Share on other sites
