mitchpee 10 Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 It saddens me deeply because it has been such a lacking year for snow and it's almost over! Link to post Share on other sites

foreversnow 5 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Originally Posted By: SKI Where is it next time snowhuntress? Well I feel like a total traitor as we have done Niseko for the last 4 years but next year we are planning somewhere else. Thanks to these forums we have realised that there are a lot of other great resorts in Hokkaido. We are planning to base ourselves in Furano and do Ashiadake, Tomamu, Kioro and any others that catch our eye. Then maybe the last week in Niseko. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 perhaps you may want to hop onto the happy bus that will be touring Hokkaido.

TJ OZ 0 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 March is good for me as work is quiet. There has still been some good snowfalls and no one around. I have been able to get on the hill a fair bit. Looking forward to an even quieter April and some warm spring days on the slopes. Link to post Share on other sites

Metabo Oyaji 71 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Snowing up a storm on the Hunter Mtn. webcams, and Saturday is supposed to be warm and sunny there, so looking good for at least one last hurrah before we get down into hardcore spring conditions. After that, still pondering Zao for Golden Week... Link to post Share on other sites
Mike Pow 52 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 It's still very much winter in the Netherlands of Hokkaido Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Certainly planning on a couple of ski days hopefully one at Madarao early April and maybe my local resort end of this month if my finger is suitably healed! Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Same - gonna get in a few more days hopefully in April :S. HOPEFULLY. Link to post Share on other sites
Jynxx 4 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Mar 29 to Apr 1 with my missus, which may be the last of this season. We noticed it doesn't get dark in the afternoon anymore. It became warm since yesterday. We smelt spring in the air. Avalance danger goes up a notch from now .. Link to post Share on other sites

Shorts, Hawaiian shirts and plenty of sun block. i almost forgot how fun spring skiing is. i believe it was 2006 golden week i was skiing alone in tsugaike and i met wezo-san and sarah-chan on a slope. they were skiing without a jacket (actually if i remember correctly wezo-san was wearing a bandanna but no t-shirt or something similar..) and i was wearing one piece ewok suit (the only ski wear i had at that time) which i felt too hot. still i had lots of fun. less crowd is best. summer skiing sounds like fun too. if its chile and argentina u can ski and tango.

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 I haven't made it up at all this month so def gonna have a couple more days in April. 2 years ago I was riding down 47 with my jacket open at the zip, I wanted to take it off and just ride in my t-shirt but couldn't be bothered riding to the bottom and leaving it there Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Yes I really need to get out and have some more time on the mountains, been very lazy the last month though in my defence it hasn't been entirely appealing for most of it! Link to post Share on other sites
