JEZx 0 Posted June 20, 2002 Share Posted June 20, 2002 Hi. Just wondering if any of you people here buy season passes to any resorts in winter? Link to post Share on other sites
Matt 0 Posted June 20, 2002 Share Posted June 20, 2002 I've had a season pass for 47/Goryu the last two seasons. Had a blast! Link to post Share on other sites
IIIII 2 Posted June 21, 2002 Share Posted June 21, 2002 Me too, same as Matt. Well worth it. I went about 30 days this last season. Link to post Share on other sites
oo 1 Posted June 21, 2002 Share Posted June 21, 2002 No, I live to far away to (maybe) enjoy it to the full. I am tempted each season though. Link to post Share on other sites
Matt 0 Posted June 21, 2002 Share Posted June 21, 2002 Hey IIIII. You gonna get one next season too? and have I met you up on the slopes before? Link to post Share on other sites
cal 6 Posted June 22, 2002 Share Posted June 22, 2002 I just couldn't justify it, I like to check out different resorts each season, and don't want to be tied down. It must be great though if you live right near resorts tho. I heard that if many of the AETs based in resort towns get season passes given to them for the resorts in the town. How great it must be to be the Hakuba, Nozawa, Yuzawa etc AET if that's true Link to post Share on other sites
blinkin'ek 0 Posted June 22, 2002 Share Posted June 22, 2002 I'm just super-jealous of anyone who lives at the bottom of decent slopes. Link to post Share on other sites
7-11 2 Posted June 23, 2002 Share Posted June 23, 2002 I also had one for 47 last season - it seems to be a popular place. If you can get to resorts that you like often, a season tick is well worth it. Link to post Share on other sites
seamus 0 Posted June 24, 2002 Share Posted June 24, 2002 Naaah, good idea though if you can make good use of them. I wonder how many the resorts sell each season? Link to post Share on other sites
something2do 0 Posted June 27, 2002 Share Posted June 27, 2002 Would love to have the chance, but not here in Kyushu! Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted July 4, 2002 Share Posted July 4, 2002 Do any of the season passes have your mugshot on them (so you cant cheat and give them to someone else to use)? Link to post Share on other sites
Matt 0 Posted July 5, 2002 Share Posted July 5, 2002 Yeah the 47/goryu season pass is electronic and has your face on it too. They check up on it occasionally and say that they'll confiscate thge pass if it doesn't belong to you. Usually they have signs up, warning you on the days they check (kind of defeats the object.)

C.Frog 0 Posted July 5, 2002 Share Posted July 5, 2002 I didn't get a season pass last year as I wanted to try out lots of resorts, but as I kind of fell in love with Hakkoda, I bought a February month pass and travelled about 400km each way every weekend that month!!! This is what I looked like on the drive home: ------------------ Cheers, C.Frog Link to post Share on other sites
blinkin'ek 0 Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 I'll be real tempted by that all-in-one-hakuba pass there is talk of. Link to post Share on other sites
IM 0 Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Had one for Arai, but only went three times. Although, had good times, but just too far from Tokyo. Link to post Share on other sites
