window-cleaner 0 Posted May 10, 2003 Share Posted May 10, 2003 G'day all. The big question? Where to go. This place seems like a great place to find the answer to that one. Anyone been in a similar position and any advice about the best place to be? Link to post Share on other sites

Fattwins 0 Posted May 10, 2003 Share Posted May 10, 2003 What do you want??????? Nagano has many great resorts and steep terrain, also less skied so good chance for powder. Niseko open bounderies and good snow but more competition for it. Amori iwate etc have many great resorts. Again what do you want. Link to post Share on other sites
scoobydoo 0 Posted May 10, 2003 Share Posted May 10, 2003 You might find Niseko to be mini-Oz Link to post Share on other sites
Mudguts 0 Posted May 10, 2003 Share Posted May 10, 2003 Go to Niseko. Your best chance of getting choice powder! Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted May 10, 2003 Share Posted May 10, 2003 just remember that Niseko isnt the only resort in Japan. Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted May 10, 2003 Share Posted May 10, 2003 Go to Northern Nagano - loads of choice. Much more than Niseko. Link to post Share on other sites

zwelgen 0 Posted May 20, 2003 Share Posted May 20, 2003 I met a dude at Nozawa from Oz last January in the middle of a monster blizzard. He aparently was the producer of one of those tv programmes where they do up peoples backyards..? AAAANYWAY he said he had read about Japan in a magazine and checked it all out and decided on Nozawa because the skiing is great and there is more of a village atmosphere. Again like Fattwins said it depends what you want. Different places different atmosphere but where ever you go in Jan youd be unlucky to get crap snow. Link to post Share on other sites
