Day 36 - Sun Valley and more - My friends from Karuizawa stayed overnight and we had another fantabulous day. Yesterday was bluebird skies and tons of fluffy white goodness from 50+ cm dump yesterday. Finally got to Sun Valley, too, and had a blast in the powdery abundance. Probably the best day of the season so far. I skied 26 runs, 23 km.

Day 35 - Ichinose Diamond and more - Skied with friends who came up from Karuizawa and had a fantabulous day with powder that was out of this world!!!
The powder was super light and it snowed for hours and hours. I skied 19 runs, 23.4 km and did my first run on #Giant of the season. Today was an outrageously good day. Can’t wait for tomorrow!

Day 34 - Ryuoo - Much better conditions at Ryuoo yesterday. I’m really finding I like this resort and its funky clientele. I spent two hours skiing and hanging out with some university students who were up from Tokyo and they gave me confidence that Japan is gonna be fine. They also taught me about #BeReal lol. I skied 11 runs, 12.7 km.

Day 15 - Kumanoyu - Thank you Snow Gods❣️ Fifty cm of fluffy stuff fell last night and this morning. I moved from my early season skies to the Rossignol Super Virage Versatiles which are decent on this type of powder and piste mix. Hope it stays cold so we can get past the forecast stretch of no snow weather over the next ten or so days. I skied 7 runs, 9.2 km.

Day 14 - Kumanoyu - Best conditions so far this season… about 30cm of the lightest fluffiest powder you can imagine. I had errands to take care of again today so I couldn’t ski that much but I got in 5 runs and skied 6.9 km. It’s gonna snow more tonight. All hail the snow gods 🙏

Day 13 - Yakebitai - I couldn’t update this yesterday due to meetings and an event. Yay! Snowing hard and an additional run opened up at Yakebitai. Unfortunately I had a meeting to attend so it was a short day. Skied 4 runs, 4.2 km. Really looking forward to skiing today with all the new pow.

Day 12 - Ryuoo - Went back again today since it was fun yesterday. It was sunny and hard pack today. Skied 8 runs, 10 km. No video today due to my incompetence operating my iPhone camera 😳
