muikabochi 208 Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 I met up with a friend from Tokamachi and SJ4 for a bit of fun up at Hakkai-san in my town the other day. Good to be out on the snow again and we had a good time out there, but it felt like "the end" You can pretty much see the runs on offer here: Not many people around at all!

nagpants 1 Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Is that the place with lots of moguls? Link to post Share on other sites
SKI 15 Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Wow I'm surprised that Hakkai san was open that late and there was so much cover. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted May 12, 2006 Author Share Posted May 12, 2006 I was surprised as well SKI, not sure if they can every year or not. This year though I really think places like Urasa/Koide/Horinouchi got more snow than Yuzawa at lower levels. Link to post Share on other sites
snowboarding-sam 0 Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 How far are you from Hakkai san muikabochi? I might be on for checking it out next season. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted May 14, 2006 Author Share Posted May 14, 2006 About 15-20 minute drive snowboarding-sam. Come and try it out next season. Link to post Share on other sites
snowboarding-sam 0 Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 I might just do that, thanks! Must be good living there with so much choice. Faves of the area? Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 Probably Kagura / Naeba (though needs to be a weekday more than other resorts). I like Ishiuchi, like Kandatsu, like Iwappara every now and again. Maiko bowl is good fun when good snow. Had lots of good times at Joetsu Kokusai which is the closest to where I live.
