sand 17 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Went on the cheap bus and ride package from Tokyo. Was on the mountain by 11:15 and had the last run at about 4:15 (lifts closed at 4:30). It snowed heavily all day, which although gave me cold toes by the end of the day, ment lovely fresh snow all day. Tokura has 7 double chairs, the longer ones all being express. Unfortunately they had GS and Slalom race training (see photo) during the afternoon which took up a half of 2 good runs. The mountain has some good variation with some good features in the park. It was a little smaller than what I've become used to (White World). But as I spent the day between working on technique and riding the fresh snow ,it was all good. Link to post Share on other sites
