Fattwins 0 Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 better areas than arai fir that unless you have snow machine Link to post Share on other sites
igloo 3 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 Snow machine for hiking? I hope it opens. I like the place a lot. Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 I can certainly think of lots of places I'd rather have closed than Arai. I suppose if someone does snap it up and open it this year they will get a lot of publicity out of doing just that. They'll have missed all the deadlines for the guides and things by a long margin of course. Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Look places like this have to close if others are going to keep operating. Its not a shame that it closed its a fact of econmics. Let it be as it will never make money. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 It may not be a shame for you, but it is a shame for lots of people. If some company comes in and tries to make a go of it, then good luck to them I say. As a boarder who likes the place, I will go. Link to post Share on other sites
Pascal 0 Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 I heard he story that depreciation on the place would take about 100 years! It will need go at a very low price to find takers. Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird2 0 Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 I wonder if someone might buy the ski hill without the hotels or if it all needs to be bought as one? Link to post Share on other sites
jgraves 0 Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Don't see why they couldn't . . but. . . Wouldn't the banrupt owner and/or bank have already sold off all saleable assets including lifts, snow-making equip, etc.??? And aren't property taxes assessed to whoever owns a property on Jan 1?? Thats certainly not an insignifanct hunk of change on a multi-million $ prop. and and and I would be extremely surprised if anyone bought any of it at this point. Link to post Share on other sites
zebedee 1 Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 I know of a company that is still owed quite a lot by Arai. The most recent news they have had is that there will be a further decision as to what is paid to who in December. Link to post Share on other sites
snowboard 0 Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Still no news at all? Surely that means no action this year. Shame that. Link to post Share on other sites

kkk 7 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Which is not a bad thing. Just seems a waste all that snow going to waste at arai Link to post Share on other sites
snowboarding-sam 0 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Still upset about this. I want that place to open. No rumours or anything? Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Look if you dont know about it now I doubt it will be open. Link to post Share on other sites
snowboarding-sam 0 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 No need to shout! Just wondering surely someone knows something. Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 i dont shout or put in little smiles too much effort. In all seriousness it really cant open now unless someone has kept the place up to snuff. Then there is the marketing etc. Any company would loose a fortune trying to start up now.

SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan#Andrew 6 Posted November 30, 2006 SnowJapan Admin Share Posted November 30, 2006 I have just spoken to the people in charge of accounts for the old company to try to find out. Apparently the decision as to whether anyone will be opening the resort this season will be made next week and so there may be some Arai news coming your way soon... (unfortunately said new company won't be paying unpaid bills ) Link to post Share on other sites

Fattwins 0 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Fark SJ thats not cool. Still a bit late in the game to even try to start this puppy up and make coin. I wish the thing would just die. It makes no sense to try and get this place going again really, Places like JA that hold things together are just plain silly. Link to post Share on other sites
