Guest Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 People keep telling me how great the season was last year (I wasn't here) but this is my first year being in Japan and I must confess I have not been very impressed. Was last year just very unusual? Link to post Share on other sites

big-will 7 Posted March 20, 2002 Share Posted March 20, 2002 Another of you one time wonders with the huge comments. OK, this season. Started off awesome, got warm mid Jan, Feb was great and spring arrived a bit early. For me its been a great season Link to post Share on other sites
cal 6 Posted March 20, 2002 Share Posted March 20, 2002 Great season for me too, ulracher. What was your problem? Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted March 20, 2002 Share Posted March 20, 2002 Last season started late but had at least two massive dumps of snow that hung around for weeks even in the cities. It was cold too, so what fell was good. Besides the mental single dumps, there was fairly constant precipitation inbetween times. There were a couple of blessed falls of reasonable amounts just when we thought it was all over. Oh yes, last season was a humdinger. All the more so for being my first. There probably won't be one quite like it again for a while, but then that's normal for this century. Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted March 20, 2002 Share Posted March 20, 2002 A season and how good it is is made up of many factors - one of the main ones being the weather of course. This season was not (is not) as dumpy as last season. BUT for me, this season was much better because of where I went, how often I went, who I went with, and yes - the great conditions that I experienced for the most part. It has been ace, fab and brill. Link to post Share on other sites
Wizz 11 Posted March 20, 2002 Share Posted March 20, 2002 en contrare (or whatever the spelling is). I have had a great season. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 Its all about timing, man. Been a good one for me, better than last year as Ive had better timing and more free time than I had last year. Link to post Share on other sites
Ulleyle 0 Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 Hey no it's been a decent season for me too. Got warm too quickly over the last month or so, but... Link to post Share on other sites
aiki boy 0 Posted March 28, 2002 Share Posted March 28, 2002 The season sucked for me, but that's just because I only made it up for 2 measly day trips. Just thought I'd gripe to someone other than my wife for a change. Thanks for listening! Link to post Share on other sites
Davo 1 Posted March 28, 2002 Share Posted March 28, 2002 Almost every day I had was on sweet powder even days after a dump. Was a bit inconsistent this year but I timed my trips just right it seems and even snuck in 2 awesome bonus days last Sun/Mon. It's never enough but I'm satisfied with what I got.

oo 1 Posted March 28, 2002 Share Posted March 28, 2002 Davo said it just right - it HAS been an inconsisten season, but there have been some great conditions to enjoy out there. Just need the timing. Link to post Share on other sites
peaker 0 Posted March 29, 2002 Share Posted March 29, 2002 Its not the snow that makes the season. Its what you do on it. People who whine about snow are lame. Link to post Share on other sites
garynyberg 0 Posted March 29, 2002 Share Posted March 29, 2002 Much better than the winters of 97-98 and 98-99 when there was almost no snow until mid-January Link to post Share on other sites
