phillybikerguy 0 Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I'm traveling with family to the Sapporo festival (live in Philadelphia, PA USA) and have Sunday Feb. 7 to snowboard. I plan to leave Sapporo Station early sunday AM and travel to Niseko for the day. Does anyone wanna meet in Sapporo or at Niseko. I'm an expert rider and would like to ride mostly expert/glades. I would love to do back country but only have one day of boarding and want to make the most of it. -Laurence Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Laurence, hope you have a nice time. Sport the sticker or watch out for one. They'll give you a good welcome. Sorry I won't be there, but you can have vending machine beers 'till I turn up on 28 Feb. Link to post Share on other sites
Mike Pow 52 Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 There are options closer to Sapporo and equally as good / better than Niseko - Teine, Kiroro, Sapporo Kokusai - that may maximise your time on snow. Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Yeah, go for somewhere closer to Sapporo. Niseko is too far away by train... Link to post Share on other sites

Go Native 70 Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Teine is probably the closest good resort to Sapporo, has some nice terrain. Link to post Share on other sites
quattro 1 Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Lawrence I use to live in King of Prussia a while back. Any way have a good trip. Might be down there that weekend. Need to see what my better half says. Link to post Share on other sites

Go Native 70 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Not exactly close enough to Sapporo for a day trip though Greg! Link to post Share on other sites
Greghart 0 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 erm yep was getting confused with my places / distances. For some reason I was thinking I was in rusutsu when I was typing that... Link to post Share on other sites
