muikabochi 208 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Sunny morning so thought I'd get out for a bit of skiing. Easy option is nearby Joetsu Kokusai. Snow was a mix of sugary but not too heavy to icy in places. Clouded over quite a bit actually. Nice bit of exercise. Not really in the mood for pics, but took a few of some trees. Cheese The same frustrations as usual for Joetsu Kokusai.... lots of sitting on slow lifts. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Gunma Boarder 14 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Beautiful. That first tree shot looks like something out of snoeshoers magazine. I've been meaning to ask you for awhile now, what kind of camera do you have? Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 Thanks, thats pretty much the kind of view you get from JK. I have a Nikon D800E, Gunma Boarder, and like it very much. Link to post Share on other sites

muikabochi 208 Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 Might go again this week when we get a nice clear contrasty bluebird. Fingers crossed. Link to post Share on other sites
ippy 66 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 can we get you out in a proper howling gale? I really want to see some Turner like photos from you Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 Very probably not. Going out in a gale does not interest me in the slightest. And I don't think I'd be keen to take my camera out either! I'm quite protective of it. Link to post Share on other sites

seemore 66 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I love trees with snow on them Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Nice pics. I did enjoy Joetsu earlier this season, haven't been back since, but definitely a good place when the weather is on your side. And the lifts are moving a bit quicker than a snail. Link to post Share on other sites
