Jimmer 2 Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Some nice shots of Torstein and Paul there Jishipi. It really has been great the last few days. I have just tried to post a picture, but it doesn't seem to work. I copied the image location into the image box, but then when I preview it doesn't come up. Any tips?

muikabochi 208 Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Originally Posted By: muikabochi I don't know what they do at Kagura but it surely doesn't add up. 100cm can fall over a period of a few days and they don't change it. Good example. Last 2 days, Kagura over the last 2 days: 40-50cm (yesterday) 50-70cm (this morning) That's 90-120cm in my reckoning...... but no change in the official snow depth!

Jishipi 0 Posted January 16, 2010 Author Share Posted January 16, 2010 The last few days here in Niseko have been truly amazing! 3 days ago i thought well - this is as good as it gets and then the next 2 days have pretty much been exactly the same - overcast with heaps of snow. No idea exactly how much but i found a few spots yesterday where it was over head for me and i am a snowboarder ! This morning i booted straight over to Hanazono with Tom and we had ourselves a classic mushroom feast. In my opinion the only element missing was some sunshine...but when the pow is this good who cares. POW !!! Link to post Share on other sites

banjobiwan 0 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 after a well earned but albeit silly move to take the day off riding yesterday (i heard some epic lines were had all over) we decided to do a bit of peak hiking today. once in the morning dropping from mt annupurri peak down fujiwara no sawa to hanazono 308 for a quick break...then traverse to annupuri side to meet the crew for lunch. then at 225 we headed out gate 2 up the south peak, down to mt annupurri and dropped into kozan no sawa.... the weather lifted, blue sky and golden snow as the sun was dropping made for a great run down and high fives all round at the bottom enjoy some of the pics...vid up soon. ( if i can stop riding long enough to edit something) Timo Koskinen Timo Koskinen Marika Ranta Marika Ranta Yours truly Timo Koskinen Thanks to marika for this shot...i got out from behind the lens finally! this guy was prepped for the BC ps sorry SJer's this is only a sample of over 500 or so shots from today... its all about FPS.
