cd97 0 Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Anyone plan to go for a last fling June/July? I might be up for it. Link to post Share on other sites
IceEiji 0 Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 I usually go right at the end for one last time. Its not great place of course, but then there is only about 2 month before nearly fall come and look forward to next snow season. Link to post Share on other sites
JEZx 0 Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 I think going there would spoil the memory of a great season, it looks crap. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 As with not-so-perfect days at the beginning of the season, I think crap days at the end have not the slightest effect in diminishing the overall quality of the season. By denying myself riding time at the start and end, how could I possibly also be having an effect on those crazy creamy powder days that came in the middle? If Gassan were within reasonable distance, I'd go for sure. Link to post Share on other sites

klubhead 0 Posted May 5, 2003 Share Posted May 5, 2003 so when gassan closes in july is it because of the lack of snow? does anyone know where diehards can get in some turns in aug/sep in japan/ is ther anything really worth considering? Link to post Share on other sites
