slow 0 Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Fattwins, how long does it take from Nozawa onsen to Hakuba by car? Around one hour or so? I'm also looking forward to seeing your wife there! Link to post Share on other sites
nekobi 0 Posted January 13, 2005 Author Share Posted January 13, 2005 hey slow, sunrise, others-hows it going? being back in the us is nice, but definitely a lifestyle adjustment bc i'm in school and have no money. and i really miss nagano- esp now that its winter!! i was hoping to visit zwelgen in canada (she's a lifty at fernie this season) to get some riding in, but it doesnt look like its gonna happen " title="" src="graemlins/cry.gif" /> and slow to answer your q- its at least 2 hours nozawa-hakuba by car. more (up to 3+ hrs) depending how fast you get thru nagano city and snow conditions. not sure if there's a shortcut thru kinasa/togakushi or something.

Yuki's Passion 1 Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 You mean Friday night were gonna go to Hakuba first, ski at happo/tsugaike, leave mid-afternoon and head to Noz?
