RobBright 35 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Where are YOU going to this weekend? Weather forecast looks promising this week, with snow on the horizon for many areas. Tell us all and let's dancing for the snow. Am off to Hakuba for a long weekend. Can't wait! Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I'll go any day other than 22nd and 23rd! Link to post Share on other sites
ippy 66 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 must be nice. Plan probably is nozawa just because its going to be swimming again, and if its swimming, id rather be in a resort i know than one i dont. Hopefully the crowds are slowly moving out after the last two weekends. Only two more weekends and its the end of the japanese season! HANAMI!!! The peak is over! The resorts will be emptying out again and lift queues will be back to non existent again and we can all stop fighting for tracks on yamabiko. Of course, it means we've got around two months left before its golden week and everything shuts down! Time to move to that whatsitsface skijo that mick rich always bangs on about. Oh, and march also means i get to know if im being recontracted or not. Exciting times! Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 Without sounding silly, do the JR 日帰り deals stop at the end of Feb, or March? Link to post Share on other sites

MagSeven 40 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I was lucky enough to win one of the giveaways (thanks again SnowJapan!) for a Tomamu daypass, so I'll be using that. Then I'm going to check out Sahoro as well. I've been meaning to head over that way for ages now, so I'm looking forward to checking out some new spots! Forecast looks quite good for the weekend, so fingers crossed! Photos and a report will be up on Sunday night. (Well, maybe Monday morning. Ok, maybe Tuesday.) Link to post Share on other sites

Thundercat 60 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Weekend off for me unfortunately as I have work commitments. Enjoy the snow dudes and dudettes! Link to post Share on other sites
Gunma Boarder 14 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I'm thinking about going to Kagura on Saturday morning. Haven't been yet this season and heard the romance lift is already open. Sunday will probably be my usual (Kawaba). But maybe I will go to Hodaigi or Iwakura to change things up. If these plans match up with yours, let me know Link to post Share on other sites

pie-eater 207 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Tubby, I have been analyzing this in depth for you over the last minute or so. I think it's safe to say that either Saturday or Sunday will be windier than the other. Not clear which yet. Use that information freely and feel free to Twatter or or post on those Facebooks. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
