Welcome

This is something I've threatened to do for a long time. I've been in Japan for 7 years and snowboarded for 5 of those 7 years. All in all, it's been a tremendous experience. However, when I see the movies and read the expectations of folks, I think I can shed a bit of light on the subject. So, I will be posting photos and observations over the next few months. Hopefully, some of them will be new. For the last 2 seasons (07-08 and 08-09), we've had some disappointing conditions. That doesn't mean there hasn't been powder but it's been far more scarce than it once was.
