mattlucas 0 Posted October 19, 2004 Author Share Posted October 19, 2004 I went for an overnight hike up Yakushi on the weekend. Amazing weather for once. I ran down a ridge near the top in knee to thigh deep wind blown powder. Was only about 100 metres long and way to far to haul skis up but it was so much fun Link to post Share on other sites

giggsy 0 Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 Its painful here. Winter is coming right from the end of August almost, then the weather is just the same until April or something like that. Over there is sounds like much more fun. Someone even told me you have these 'season' things over there. Link to post Share on other sites
