SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted May 20, 2010 SnowJapan Admin Share Posted May 20, 2010 On weekends I think so yes. Weekdays not so much, it looks very quiet today. Here are some photos from a few days ago, courtesy of the the resort. The Kagura Gondola course This is the Mistumata area, used just to get people back from the gondola to the mitsumata ropeway at the end of the day. Link to post Share on other sites

SKI 15 Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 They have done well to keep it there until now. They usually have the bus going well before now I think. Link to post Share on other sites

Go Native 70 Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 If you're prepared to earn your turns and do some walking there'll definitely be some backcountry options through June. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted May 21, 2010 Author Share Posted May 21, 2010 Yes perhaps I should have said that. I meant the resort is open until 30th May, after that no lifts moving. Can think of more fun things to do myself but... Link to post Share on other sites
