bushpig 0 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 not really for people living here. As I said only for those whole have to drive a long way just to get even here. It really isn't all that popular among the locals from what I can gather. Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 As Hirafu, you can have the whole slope to yourself if you night ski from about 8 to closing ~9:30pm. If there's no wind, which is seldom, it's dead silent, eerily silent. For my final run of the evening, I usually finsh off with a beer at the Alpen. Aaaah Niseko, here I come.........December.

oo 1 Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 That sounds good. Does it not get icy at all like lots of other places? Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 not icy at all. it's way below and with some fresh dusting in the evening, it's great. Imagine the whole place to yourself and nobody but the lift operators around, all lit up just for you. Link to post Share on other sites
