nagpants 1 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I was in Karuizawa over the weekend. Ash on the car yesterday morning. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Whoah saw that on the next last night. Only classified as a small one, but warning that a bigger one might be on the way. I presume there's no ski resorts on there? But isn't there an Asama 2000 or something quite nearby? Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 On the news in Oz, too. Nice pics muika. Joshni - not at Aso-san, was it? Link to post Share on other sites
yoroshiku onegai shimasu 2 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 No, it was Sakura-somethingorother, not Aso. Don't think it was Blofelds lair either. Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 OK, found this very brief report. Doesn't seem like they are taking it seriously. A few little shivery/shakey things in the past week - see here for details. Link to post Share on other sites
mina2 6 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Got some great views of Asama from Naganohara this morning. (Not as impressive as muikabochis mind!) It's an good looking mountain. Link to post Share on other sites

muikabochi 208 Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 Hoping to do just that as well, never really been to that area of Gunma. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 Spent the weekend in Karuizawa at the base of Asama. Looks like a fair bit of snow has gone in the last week or so, not surprising with the warm weather. Here's some pics, from Karuizawa from the east from Onioshidashi a bit more to the north Link to post Share on other sites

joshnii 2 Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 You need to do "from the west" now, muika Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 What is to the west? I suppose you are getting up to near Sugadaira then (?) Asama is a goos looking mountain. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Looks best from the north looking south from Kusatsu / Shiga Kogen I reckon. Link to post Share on other sites
