IIIII 2 Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 What do you think? The few times I have been able to go out so far this season, the slopes always seem to be almost empty.... Any thoughts? Link to post Share on other sites
Plucky 0 Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 Not crowded at all. The only exception would be Appi. 'The tourist destination up north' for the Tokyo jetset. Don't know why - the place sucks. Besides that, uncommonly uncrowded. Good for us! Link to post Share on other sites
enderzero 0 Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 Pretty much anywhere I have been on a weekend has been crowded and anywhere I have been on a weekday has been dead. Same applies to home. Link to post Share on other sites
Will Lee 0 Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 That`s probably because like myself you go mostly on weekdays? Yeah man, weekdays ROCK...it`s like having the whole mountain to yourself! Been also going out with friends on Sundays but we always try to pick not so popular ski areas thus so far it hasn`t been that big of a problem. Link to post Share on other sites

barok 0 Posted February 10, 2003 Share Posted February 10, 2003 I find them to be of course crowded on weekends, less so on weekdays. I have had collisions with probably 4 or 5 people - and 1 is too many. So yeah, crowded. Link to post Share on other sites
Will Lee 0 Posted February 10, 2003 Share Posted February 10, 2003 Like I posted earlier my buddies and I have been trying to board at not so well known ski areas on weekends for the month of Feb and so far it has been paying off. We went to Omote Manza yesterday and although at times there seemed to be quite a few ppl we never had to wait more than half a minute in line(that bottom run did get a little crowded but who cares we spent most of our time up on top)! You`ve just gotta select your destination carefully I guess. Link to post Share on other sites
feel 0 Posted February 11, 2003 Share Posted February 11, 2003 I've not been here long enough to know, but it doesn't seem busy to me! Link to post Share on other sites
Wizz 11 Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 It seems to get less crowded each season. Link to post Share on other sites
oo 1 Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 Same here, pretty much Link to post Share on other sites
echineko 1 Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 I also think not so busy. Link to post Share on other sites
cheeseman 1 Posted February 14, 2003 Share Posted February 14, 2003 Just to post my thoughts once more, but I think that if resorts become more "cheesefriendly", it would certainly pay off in terms of profits! And goodwill too! Happy cheesefans will flock to the resorts concerned. Link to post Share on other sites
oblivion 5 Posted February 17, 2003 Share Posted February 17, 2003 I was at Maiko Kogen yesterday and it wasn't that busy, didn't have to wait for most lifts at all. Link to post Share on other sites
