Japan Day Two

Day two: Woke up to 50+ cm of new snow. 

Here is what the Niseko Snow Report said

Having spent the last 5 seasons here I’ve seen some big snowfalls and last night was right up there with some of the biggest. There’s been at least 50cm of actual falling snow, it’s still snowing heavily and this should continue throughout the day. We should easily see the top of the mountain crack the 3m mark today.

We decided to go for a little hike in the woods.  It was one of the deepest days of my life.

Literally up to my neck deep.

After a really long day rallying with frozen food and frozen water, we went to the hot springs.  I was so excited to go until I realized they were not coed and I had to sit in the springs by myself while the boys laughed and drank beer across the fence.

Japan is fun, but I’m in a man’s world.  I wish I could bring the ripping Roxy possee here.

The hot spring was so cool!!!

It’s interesting here.   I’m having a good time but it is mentally tiring to be on an opposite time schedule.  But I got to check out some of the photos and videos from the Sweetgrass guys and they were SICK!  So onto day 3…I hope I can sleep tonight.
