yamabushi 3 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 I did two days on Tomamu (a few days apart) and both days the gondola was not operating. It wasn't because of wind, it wasn't because of snow (a series of chairlift trips can take you higher than the gondola), so basically I don't know what it was. I try to ask but my limited Japanese could not make sense of what the dude behind the counter was saying. Does anybody knows why? Oh God I love Tomamu on a powdery day. Oh God I hate it when the gondola is down. Link to post Share on other sites
SKI 15 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Just because lifts are operating doesn't necessarily mean that the gondola isn't affected by wind. I don't know in this case, of course.... Link to post Share on other sites

yamabushi 3 Posted December 28, 2012 Author Share Posted December 28, 2012 Nope, wind was not a factor. I'm gone already, back in Honsu (Misawa-shi, Aomori-ken). I was wondering if somebody here would know. Love the place but without the gondola, making it to the top requires you to take a crappy and slow chairlift, traverse accross, take a quad, go low, take another chair, then another single chair lift to the top. By the time you make it your toes are ready to fall off. Link to post Share on other sites
Alexander L 80 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Thats really what it's about. The chairs are really really slow 'cos the kids need to get on. This is really a family resort wanting to attract even more families. Link to post Share on other sites
