SerreChe 2 Posted October 3, 2005 Author Share Posted October 3, 2005 Never been there, but must be pretty good if it gets the first snow of the season. Wonder which part of Honshu will get its first sprinkle of snow. Link to post Share on other sites

SerreChe 2 Posted October 4, 2005 Author Share Posted October 4, 2005 Oooops, green patches are gone already. Montoya, looking forward to hitting the BC with you again this season! Wonder who will the first from this forum to get some early pow under their belt this season. I think last season was Toque & FT on Tateyama if I remember correctly...

Fattwins 0 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 im betting on toque this year. Link to post Share on other sites
montoya 0 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Don't worry serreche, snow will come soon enough... We visited Jinbocho here in Tokyo this weekend. Crowds are definitely picking up. Stores that used to carry surfing/summer hiking stuff have all switched to the winter gear. Boards and skis everywhere you look. I think probably fattwins and toque will be first out if they hit tateyama again. Link to post Share on other sites

mattlucas 0 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I'm hoping the rain this week will drop a little snow on Norikura Not sure if the rain is being forced up from the south though. Might be too warm. Link to post Share on other sites
