muikabochi 208 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 I went over to White World Oze Iwakua in Katashina, Gunma prefecture this morning. The sun was out, blue skies and good snow. Interesting place. There's a fair few ungroomed courses, lots of moguls but also a decent selection of groomed gliding courses. Somehow I wasn't in the mood for a long day skiing and taking photos, and not sure if I'll be going back.... decent place but perhaps now I've been I'm on for somewhere else. Here's a few I took mixture of scenery and shots of the resort That's Nikko Shirane and Marunuma Kogen resort: Link to post Share on other sites

muikabochi 208 Posted January 19, 2010 Author Share Posted January 19, 2010 No, it's not a trail. It's a bank of snow at the top of the gondola. Walked up a bit to get the shot. Some people looking on as if I'd lost it. But I liked the cut of it's jib. Link to post Share on other sites
