Gunma Boarder 14 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I don't think I could have gotten that one without the powerlines. They run pretty close to my house. Was that image flipped? I swear I found the same picture but it was backwards. Link to post Share on other sites
the snowboarding vicar 1 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I most certainly did flip it. Otherwise the cheats would just go on google image and try to find it. Not very sporting. Link to post Share on other sites
Gunma Boarder 14 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I tried to post this a couple days ago but was breaking the rules. But after getting the last pic I'm up, so who can figure out where my profile pic was taken? Link to post Share on other sites
snowbender 3 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Is it Tenjin? Link to post Share on other sites
Gunma Boarder 14 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Nope not Tenjin Link to post Share on other sites
hellyer 216 Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 it looks like the Matterhorn! Link to post Share on other sites
Gunma Boarder 14 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 No It's in Japan. Definitely an area worth checking out Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Are they rocks in the foreground there? Link to post Share on other sites
Gunma Boarder 14 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Yes, those are rocks in the forground. The picture was taken from a ridgeline before I climbed the peak in the background. A little clue. The pic was taken during golden week 2011 Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Hmmm, not Mt Granview then? Link to post Share on other sites
Gunma Boarder 14 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 No. Another clue. It's not from a skijo Link to post Share on other sites

Gunma Boarder 14 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 No it isn't Yariga. This mountain is not not quite as spearlike. That is I really good guess though. Link to post Share on other sites
Gunma Boarder 14 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 that not not was a mistake not a double negative Link to post Share on other sites
onehunga 26 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Mount Okuhotaka Link to post Share on other sites
Gunma Boarder 14 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 No, not Hotaka either. It is a very high mountain but not in any of the three sets of Japanese alps (中、北、南） Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 No. Another clue. It's not from a skijo I thought the rules were it had to be of a skijo? Link to post Share on other sites
onehunga 26 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Mount Myōkō Link to post Share on other sites
onehunga 26 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 No. Another clue. It's not from a skijo I thought the rules were it had to be of a skijo? A number of the first photos in this thread weren't of skijo's, but all had snow in them and were locations snowjapan members would travel though to get to skijo's. Link to post Share on other sites
Gunma Boarder 14 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I have seen this mountain from a number of Skijos. It is one of the tallest mountains in Japan which is not in the Alps. Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 it doesn't have to be a ski jo....just a mountain in Japan I've no idea Link to post Share on other sites
Alexander L 80 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 It doesn't need to be a mountain, just to do with snow and Japan. Link to post Share on other sites
hellyer 216 Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 Yes - snow and japan - or sometimes no snow as in skijo in green season Link to post Share on other sites
