ILoveZao 8 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Hello I saw in Mikes thread a comment about Niseko: "If Niseko United has any aspirations to become a truly international winter sports destination then the links between Annupuri, Niseko Village and Grand Hirafu need to be improved. Dramatically." I found it interesting. I am not in depth about Niseko but how do you think improvements could be made? Link to post Share on other sites

ju87 0 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Making the 'runs' between the areas more obvious and suitable for all ability levels. and perhaps lit at night so the crossing can be done beyond 330pm... also, improvements in signage would help. took me a while to figure out how to get to hanazono from hirafu Link to post Share on other sites
Go Native 70 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I like it the way it is. Keeps a whole lot of people stuck in Hirafu! Link to post Share on other sites
anniebans 0 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 A rop tow at the top of Hirafu to Niseko Village, and activate the existing tow between Hanazono and Hirafu would be a good start. Link to post Share on other sites
panhead_pete 27 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I like it the way it is. Keeps a whole lot of people stuck in Hirafu! Hehe yes indeed. This is the only saving grace at Niseko, some of the mountain isnt tracked out by 11am by Bogans Link to post Share on other sites
