Is that a technical term?

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

Yep, and also further up Grinning quoted someone else quoting him. So you have to stop it in two places....
Our only hope is to make enough posts moaning about it that the forum rolls over to another page. Then hope no-one quotes it again...

I can't seem to turn this off, it comes on again every time I open the thread. Any idea why? I can't even turn the sound off. Lovely as it is, I've had enough of it now. (Not noticed this happening with any other vimeo vid I've watched.) |

Bloody hell, what am I doing wasting life in London when there's snow in Japan? Keep the stoke coming, pretty please

The thread drift is almost as substantial as the snow. Here's what the car looked like last night after 10 hours in the car park at the base. Looks similar again this morning outside the lodge

Much better in Furano today - about 30-40cm of fresh up top, still busting through to the hard layer most of the time but massive improvement. Still puking it down now too
Awaiting niseko updates though - biggest dump of the season apparently and too much for the piste bashers to get to the top ridge!!

Generally the snow is so light that even the tracks aren't really noticeable. It's all just cold, white smoke

Several days hammering Japow! and a lot of travelling is starting to take it's toll: the Rabbit has been hit by a fluey virus, I've been skiing for 3 days on a torn rotator cuff and Graham appears to hurt everywhere. However, with a promising forecast we headed back to Rusutsu. It was perhaps the first time that not a lot, if any, snow had fallen the previous evening. Even so, there were still boot to knee deep freshies to be found amongst the many, many trees. Here's the Rabbit nailing it in a rimed forest.

@Sharkymark, you can go off people you know. Are you sick of the raw fish yet?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
@Sharkymark, you must be getting fed up of all that fresh snow by now, such terrible conditions...
Hope Rabbit feels better soon, he's had more than his fair share recently.

@Hells Bells, yes. I called it on about day 6 and refused to have another meal devoted entirely to uncooked pelagic animals. Today I went one step further and had chips for lunch. There's only so much ramen and miso one can handle. Back to full bore Japan now though

Despite what one might assume of the sharky one, he's not much of a fish fan. He claims to have eaten more this week than his whole life till now.
He knows now that sushi is a special case.
