Not many for me:

 

- Happo

- Tsugaike Kogen

- Cortina

- H47

- Goryu (I consider the same as 47)

- Nozzle

- Niseko

- Naeba

- Arai

- Hakouda

- Kagura

- A small place in Yuzawa. Supposedly the steepest resort in town (can't remember its name)

- Another small place in Yuzawa. (Can't remember its name either)

 

Not sure why I can't remember the names of Yuzawa resorts? Even after looking at the list of resorts in the valley the names still don't sound familiar. I know what the problem is: Japanese words often sound the same to me, especially resort names.

Could be, could be. There was a ridge with some pines on it. In my first year I used to go there a bit by myself to "practice" riding steep stuff. They had a very lumpy short steep course that at the time was a bit of a challenge. I like to think of that little resort as my training ground for what came later on. ;\)

 

Oh, I forgot to add Hunter Mountain to my list above. How could I forget my Hunta trip with powwwers!
