Thundercat 60 Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Here's my 5 (planning on taking my car to Hokkaido next year so...) Kamui Kurodake Kiroro Sapporo Kokusai Mt. Fuji (I know it's not a resort but I look at it everyday all through the winter and dream about doing it. The only thing holding me back is finding a partner who is up to the challenge. Any takers?) I actually did pretty good for getting to new places this year as I hit up Moiwa, Madarao, Ryuoo, Zao Onsen and Tsugaike. Link to post Share on other sites

I actually did pretty good for getting to new places this year as I hit up Moiwa, Madarao, Ryuoo, Zao Onsen and Tsugaike. Definitely add Furano and Tokachidake to that list. We didnt have the goods at Furano when we were there. When it was going off we were at Kamui, but there is SOOO much terrain at Furano that it has to go off. People do ski the SC and BC there as we saw some groups touring off the top. Link to post Share on other sites
dyna8800 3 Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Ski or snowboard? That makes a big difference... Also, have been to most of the majors, so my list would be almost all second tier resorts. Here's my five. Yuzawa Area Kandatsu and Naeba (Yeah, can you believe it?) Shinshu Area Kijimadaira/Maki no Iri Togari Hokkaido Area Rusutsu Link to post Share on other sites

Nah, I was thinking about hiking up the Gotemba side... but not till very last season when things are a lot safer. Every time I drive up to Hakuba and as I pass Fuji I stare up at that big slope and think the same thing. Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 A friend actually did that a few years ago. He made it half way before he was turned around by some army guys coming down the hill so he boarded from about a third of the way up. I read a report on this site actually from a couple of guys from Tokyo how did it... Any takers??? Let's do it! Link to post Share on other sites
