RobBright 35 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 With warmer weather coming our way this weekend, will we have some nice bluebird days and corduroy runs? Am off to Ryuoo (thanks SJ!!!) and Takaifujimiyase this weekend, first time for me to go to either place, so pretty excited. Got the opiates for the shoulder, so am covered there, but alas, no drinking on those. Where are you off to, and why there? Link to post Share on other sites
ippy 66 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Honestly no genuine idea. I was feeling i should make a trip to myoko, but suginohara in the slush is god awful. Might have to hold off for a lucky weekend. Alas theres really only two realistically. So if not now then then! Possibly nozawa, possibly whatever goodie the SJs just sent me. Thanks dudes!

Mick Rich 78 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Another weekend off the hills for me, though this one I'm spending up in Tohoku rather than at home watching snowboarding vids! Have fun guys! Link to post Share on other sites
MagSeven 40 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Weather is looking a bit better in Hokkaido for the weekend. Earlier it was looking like rain and high winds, but it looks like we'll get snow now and more mellow winds. I'll be up at Teine at least one day, and probably Mt Racey or maybe Rusutsu for the other. Link to post Share on other sites

Kansaiash 6 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I'm off to Ryuo this weekend too. Going up with a big group. They are expecting between 300-400 people. Not sure if that will make it any busier than usual. Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Hopefully I'll be out tomorrow or Thursday. Not sure where perhaps Ishiuchi, Gala... somewhere I haven't been yet this season. With the forecast, it should be much better tomorrow than Thurs which is looking like it could well be slushy lower down. It was taking an edge really nice first thing today but started to get very soft and a bit grabby by lunchtime. Midweek Tsugaike so noone there and wide slopes for cruisy super G goodness Hopefully something kind of similar tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Was going to go to Madarao, but with summer like weather on its way think I will give that a miss and go the following week or during my daughters spring break! So instead will just go to our local Sun Meadows as there is a race competition on and my daughter wants to do this! I may do as well if they have an adults race too. Expecting sticky conditions although hopefully will not be too bad at the altitude it is at! Maybe!!! Link to post Share on other sites

muikabochi 208 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Just come back from a few hours at Ishiuchi Maruyama. Snow was very hard and noisy this morning. As it warmed up the snow was softening. But yes, spring has definitely sprung. It was fun though my legs got a good work out. Link to post Share on other sites
Kansaiash 6 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Sorry to disappoint but only warm weather and sunshine down my way. Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 My son wanted to come along today so we mainly stayed lower down. Much warmer today at 10C and baking sun, so its getting very soft indeed. Hopefully it'll freeze again tonight, but with rain on the way, it's looking like slush by the weekend. Link to post Share on other sites
