mattlucas 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Quote: Last week Japan experienced a huge winter storm. It started snowing heavily on monday and didn't stop till friday. Some places in northern Hida received more than 2 metres of snow. That was from my SJ journal just a week after the storm Link to post Share on other sites

mattlucas 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 I crashed my car a day before it started and had to ride my bike to work during the worst of it. My friend who was staying with me at the time was skiing all through it at a local hill here. It said it was beyond epic. He had to borrow my bigstix cause his fat skis wern't fat enought. I hated him. Link to post Share on other sites

veronica 2 Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Wow that yellow part looks good - 100>150cm! where is that centered, Gifu? Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 That's Gifu/Nagano I did do a lot of complaining. But have to say that my friends helped me out a lot. I only missed 1 weekend because of the accident and that was a shitty one anyways because of rain. Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 yeah you got lucky I remember you even calling it the end of your season at one point. Link to post Share on other sites
HoTRoD 2 Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 That red part isn't Nagano is it, too west for that? Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 The red is right over northern Gifu The Yellow extends into Nagano Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 gifu always gets a ton of snow as well. I fear the day that takasu and dynaland join forces to become a bigger resort. Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Why? It would make a good resort wouldn't it? Link to post Share on other sites
TJ OZ 0 Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Yeah I remember the Monday as being one of the best powder days ever. It started with a little in the morning and ended with massive amounts. We were at Happo and it snowed a foot in one hour as we were having lunch. Our tracks were filled after each run. We ran the trees along the northern ridge and it just kept getting better every run. Finished the day off boarding straight down to Momonoki onsen. Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 because it would pull even more people away from hakuba. TJ I remember those days except I was playing somewhere else Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Yes it might But it would make a great big resort which should have been done originally And don't most people that go to Hakuba come from Tokyo area And most poeple that go to Takusu come from Nagoya/Southern Gifu and West Link to post Share on other sites
