proudtobegay 0 Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 Hello! Long time no see, lovies. How you all doing? It's still a while off I know, but I'm all into planning. Some places seem to be open right through until Golden Weeek, but are they really busy then, or can you actually ENJOY it? I'm all for enjoying Link to post Share on other sites
frannyo 2 Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 It can be - go just before golden week to avoid the crowds Link to post Share on other sites
echineko 1 Posted March 20, 2003 Share Posted March 20, 2003 It can be very busy, and snow not much and so less space. But last year not so bad I think. Link to post Share on other sites

scouser 4 Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 I advise getting your last run in just before the holidays. Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted March 22, 2003 Share Posted March 22, 2003 I went to Kagura last season and while there were quite a few people there, it wasn't terrible. Hardly any snow though - but this year I think we're in a much better position to be able to enjoy it at that time. Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 Forgot to mention - also went to Hakuba in late April last year and it sucked big time. Crap snow, very little of it and for what there was, it was real busy. This year will surely be better. Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 depends on the rain and warm winds. Last year the snow pretty much stopped on March 1st so this year might hold up a bit better. Try Happo in the spring they have more lifts than 47 up high. Link to post Share on other sites
frannyo 2 Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 Happo is definitely the place rather than 47 in spring, as Fattwins says. Link to post Share on other sites
cheeseman 1 Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 If resorts opened speciality cheese shops, they would be very busy right the way through until all of the snow has gone Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 I saw Happo today from Iwatake and it was just a glinting mass of moguls. I can't see the mogul situation getting any better with time... Link to post Share on other sites
TheOrange 0 Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 So many are there? Why is it that Happo gets so many. I think I'll open a new thread... Link to post Share on other sites
