SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted May 16, 2011 SnowJapan Admin Share Posted May 16, 2011 Just a few photos from Kagura/Mitsumata this weekend where the snow really has quickly disappeared from the Mitsumata areas. Still good cover up at Kagura.... Mitsumata now down to thin strips Looking down to Kagura Gondola Mitsumata quad Top of the Mitsumata Ropeway Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 That really has melted up quickly. My friend went there just a week ago and Mitsumata had cover still then. Link to post Share on other sites
SKI 15 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Wonder how long they'll be able to keep that stretch open. After that it'll be bus time. Link to post Share on other sites

Hokkaidough 4 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Said this in another thread, but always find it really interesting how quickly the snow melts at the end of the season. It's like it is holding on, then the resorts are close to closing and it just lets go. Or something. Link to post Share on other sites

geeski 0 Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I didn't get to Kagura this season - it's usually late season when I get there and this year things happened, I see the snow is quickly melting away up there now, but they did well. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Neither did I. I was planning on having such an active spring. Instead, it was very inactive and I probably put weight on! Link to post Share on other sites
