ygrene 1 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Now that the 13-14 season is winding up, I'm curious to hear how many days people got in this winter. Link to post Share on other sites

gozaimaas 61 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Somewhere between 20 and 50 Enough to stop counting anyway ;-) Link to post Share on other sites
sapporo 8 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 24 times out on the snow. (I'm including my 4 runs in the rain on Tuesday before I gave up, and including mini-hikes and 2/3 hour sessions in the hills behind my house) Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 31 today but hope to get another couple days out maybe a bit more. Actually Sun Meadows are extending the season until 17th April as still have full cover top to bottom with no dirt patches showing. Was even talk of going through to golden week but this last week has took its toll on the snow so doubt it will last that long. Link to post Share on other sites
MagSeven 40 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 57 so far. Will hopefully get to about 65 before putting the skis away for the summer. Usually it's more but I broke my hand early season so was out of action for a few weeks. Link to post Share on other sites

hellyer 216 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Only 14 for me this time in Japan but have another 10 days to look forward to in En Zed Link to post Share on other sites
Boolugu Mez 3 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 9 days of Hokkaido goodness, and only about another 300 days of waiting around till I get to have some more time on snow................................................................... Link to post Share on other sites
NECK 14 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 About 25-30 I'd say. Hope to get a few more in before surgery Link to post Share on other sites
Peetan 10 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 A total of 9 for me- Aizukogen takatsue: x4 Marunumakogen: x2 Kawaba: x1 Naeba: x1 Maiko: x1 Bought my own gear in mid January, so missed out on the winter holidays because of that. If I'm not visiting my brother in Oz next winter, I expect to up this number by quite a bit. Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 12 (6 different resorts)with one or two more on the horizon. I was only able to make it to one new resort this season. A lot less than I had planned but not having access to a car for a month and a half put a dent in my plans! Link to post Share on other sites
ygrene 1 Posted March 28, 2014 Author Share Posted March 28, 2014 I read somewhere that the average skier in the US gets 5 days a season and the average snowboarder gets closer to 6. Looking at the poll, its easy to see most SJers blow those figures out of the water! Link to post Share on other sites
Tachypsychia 13 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 I read somewhere that the average skier in the US gets 5 days a season and the average snowboarder gets closer to 6. Looking at the poll, its easy to see most SJers blow those figures out of the water! Everythings much closer in Japan and the quantity of snow seems bigger too! So far I've done 40 days since Jan 2nd. Made a spreadsheet to keep track. Towadako Onsen- 1 day Makado Onsen- 1 Day Hakkoda -1 Day (going back between now and may) Naqua Shirakami- 3 Days (maybe one more day this season) Kamafuseyama- 34 Days Great season even if I don't board anymore, but I'll probably get 5-6 more days if I'm lucky! Glad to see I'm not the only one getting some time out there. Link to post Share on other sites
