FROM LAST SEASON!


Today I went to Tenjindaira in Minakami, northern Gunma.
About 40 minutes or so drive from home here on the other side of the mountain range.

Weather was just amazing.
Deep deep blue skies.
Mad contrasts and a very suntinted face this evening!

Fantastic day up there and definitely worth a look. Early on lots of untouched areas to play in and they were pretty much carved up by lunchtime as you can perhaps see on some of the photos.
If you want a place that offers incredible scenery on a fine day, not many places will beat Tenjin. It is stunning.

Here's some photos in no real order. Just taken from the small area that is the resort. I've hardly touched contrast on most of them if anything trying to tone it down, it was mad bright. Spot all the little people in a few of the photos you might not see them at first.








Now that looks like fun















Obviously these people are very gnarly.









Looking back to Minakami





Just look at those little people!









'What should we have for tea tonight, luv?'
