i like sprouts 0 Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Hi there Fine website, glad to have found it. I was wondering if anyone on here was near to Nikko. I live 20 minutes to the south of Nikko and hoping to get out on the slopes this winter in the area and as far as my car will take me for day trips. Link to post Share on other sites

Good location. You have a pretty wide day-trip range, from Gunma and southern Niigata to Fukushima, at least? I'll be in your neighborhood this weekend, checking out Grandee Hatoriko and possibly Hunter Mountain. Also passed through on the way to Marunuma a little over a month ago. (And am now in the middle of planning the next trip to Marunuma (courtesy of SJ) from the Numata side, since the Konsei Touge is now closed.) Link to post Share on other sites
SKI 15 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 How do you get over to Marunuma when the roads closed Metabo? Do you need to come in from the south? Link to post Share on other sites
Metabo Oyaji 71 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Yes, Kan-Etsu to Numata IC, then 120 from there. Link to post Share on other sites
SKI 15 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Get it. Will be keen to hear about Hatoriko and Hunter. They are two that I know very little of. Don't forget to post a report and some pics if you can. Link to post Share on other sites
Metabo Oyaji 71 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Will do! Link to post Share on other sites

Amos in Utsunomia 0 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Not too far away sprouts-dude. I am near Utsunomiya, to the north. Where do you ski? I'm going to check out Hunter soon too. Link to post Share on other sites
