2pints-mate 0 Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Me and Bagofcrisps, and maybe another young dude here are starting to dream of our 2nd snowboarding holiday in Japan next winter. The current ideas are in the poll. What would you do out of those options? Cheers! Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I don't see "2 weeks at Wada Toge" in your poll... You're missing out, I tell ya. Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Well surely you want to try somewhere else this time. I'd do a wider tour and take in a few areas of Honshu if you have enough time and money. Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I like the Nagano Tour A little old and new for you. Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 or go way up north around capt, stag and co. Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Thanks folks keep them coming. It's interesting to see Niseko only getting 2 votes so far. Link to post Share on other sites
sanjo 2 Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 I'd go for the Nagano or wider tour. So much in a fairly small region. Link to post Share on other sites
happyhappy 0 Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 I'd explore a wider area if I were you, get to know a few places and see more of Japan. Link to post Share on other sites
Yuki's Passion 1 Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Yup, Id say Nags! Link to post Share on other sites
spinninglimbs 0 Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 I did a 3 week tour of Nagano this winter, it was awesome. Cost me a fair bit but I had saved up and the experience was definitely worth it. Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 What is the main reason people are choosing the Nags rather than the Nisex. Link to post Share on other sites
gamera 0 Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 Perhaps because easier for them to go, BOC. or maybe they want to come here to help my snow removing job Link to post Share on other sites
Davo 1 Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 I went for the Nagano one, but the wider tour would be be better if time and finances allowed for it. Have never been further north than the Nozawa area. It's all good whatever you decide on. Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Theres a lot of choice in a relatively small region with nagano. Niseko doesn't really offer that Link to post Share on other sites
sanjo 2 Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 Get some nights staying with some friendly SJers. That'll save the old cash, they will be payable in beer more than likely. Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 Any firm plans as to when you'll be coming over and for how long yet BagOfCrisps and 2pints? Link to post Share on other sites
white-void 0 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 If you've been to Hakuba, why not take a trip to Hokkaido and maybe do 2 places up there. It would make a change for sure, and you will probably like Aust..., sorry Niseko. Link to post Share on other sites

BagOfCrisps 24 Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Sent you a mail giggsy. But you'd have to promise not to mention Man Yoooo and all that rubbish. Yes whitr-void, that is the main dilemma... do we want to go the same area but that has tons of choices nearby or up to Niseko. We are still consuming many pints of beer considering this one.

2pints-mate 0 Posted May 6, 2005 Author Share Posted May 6, 2005 I'm inclined to choose the choice of a Honshu tour. Link to post Share on other sites

2pints-mate 0 Posted May 7, 2005 Author Share Posted May 7, 2005 Will do....! Link to post Share on other sites
homer 0 Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 A few of us over here are thinking over just the same, we're probably gonna go with the Hokkaido deal. The pull of the snow up there just seems too much. Link to post Share on other sites
A lawyer 0 Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Nagano tour / Wider tour I think is the best idea. Check out the places you didn't try before in Nagano, then go on up to Myoko over to Yuzawa, do some Gunma sounds good to me. Link to post Share on other sites
2pints-mate 0 Posted May 28, 2005 Author Share Posted May 28, 2005 We're having an Official Meeting to discuss this tomorrow. There will be lots of beer and snacks to accompany the chat. We might even make a prelim decision. Link to post Share on other sites
