Last Taste of Winter?


After a week of warm weather and not so good conditions on the mountain here in Niseko we got what maybe is the last taste of winter?? So after a week off from the epic season we've had everybody was brought to life again by the latest snow. Wednesday night saw a great night session on the hill with everybody I bumped into stoked that the rain had again tuned back to snow. Thursday then saw some great turns at Hanazono in the infamous strawberry fields and the for keen ones amongst us it was off to the the not so secret Chisenupuri for untracked turns. Today saw the sleds come out in the morning for a play in the Niseko backcountry. Reports I just heard was that Hirafu this afternoon was back to great spring conditions.
