Wonder if that pic (which I now cannot find) we took was on the same road with the speed sign???

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Great photos! Amazing how much is under the snow! Recently went for a hike in the mountains behind Sapporo. Amazing to see whole buildings that we didnt know existed as they're covered in snow during the winter.
A few months ago, I could step off my 2nd floor balcony onto the pile of snow next to our building. Now it's 30ft from the ground and a lovely spot for a BBQ!
Only 5 months till winter!

Glen's (360Niseko) shot is from the Panorama line road Rt 66 just beyond Chisenupuri ski area and Yukichichibu onsen.
If I'm not mistaken your pic is on the summer road that links Goshiki Onsen with Kutchan kitenski. The 'road' you hit after dropping off the back of the peak at Niseko Grand Hirafu.

Does the first sign say "I'm with d**khead"?. 
No offence.

... and take note of the red & white pole extending upward from the left-hand edge of the sign: this is a road-edge marker implying that the snow often gets EVEN DEEPER than in this picture!

I met a Japanese girl skiing once and she told em that where she came from on the main Island all the older houses were built with front doors on the first floor as well as the ground floor for getting out in winter. Though the winters now are less snowy than they were and the doors are not needed anymore.

Yes that's correct. Having a photo taken with the road sign was too good an opportunity to miss!
