kintaro 0 Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 I live in Sendai. By Zao I assume you mean the Yamagata Zao. There is also a Miyagi Zao but not as big. By the end of March you can still find some good snow. And yes, I do hit up gassan every year and plan on it again this year. Let me know if there is any specific Sendai/Zao/Gassan/Tohoku, etc., info you need...i'd be happy to help you out. Cheers! Link to post Share on other sites

mattlucas 0 Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 I lived in Sendai when I was 16 for 3 months. Went to Sendai Ikui something or other private school and a homestay. Cool place. Wasn't old or mature enough to take advantage of it and it wasn't ski season. Link to post Share on other sites
Too Orangey For Crows 0 Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 Got a friend up there who isn't a massive snowboarder but willing to give it a go. Its scandalous for someone to live in an area like that and not take advantage of it. I'll be taking him next weekend. Link to post Share on other sites
