Hi everyone, I posted a few days ago with essentially the same question so sorry about that, but a few things have changed since then.

I went to book my bus ticket for Goryu for the 23rd/24th but the company I usually go with have stopped doing tours for the season due to lack of numbers and the spring weather!

So my questions are a) Does anyone know a company doing bus tours from Nagoya this weekend? b)The snow report says that 'Spring sessions are in effect'. This is my first season so not sure what his means? Will I be able to get a full days boarding in? I've got no worries about hanging out at the top of the moutain if the snow's good up there?

Spring has arrived big time down here in Aichi where I live, t-shirt weather the last few days! I really want to get another session in before the season finishes but also don't want it to be a waste of time, so any up to date information would be ace!

Cheers all. \:\)

You can hop on a train for not much more than the bus!

Wicked the train is all good! How about the 'spring conditions'? Like I said will I be able to board for the whole day?

Spring conditions = hard and icy in the am but soft and usually slushy pm. Unless resorts shut down the lifts (which I don't think they do) you should be able to board all day, just that the conditions won't be powderiffic!!! \:D

Cheers for the advice man, I'm definitely going to make the trip up there. Another question slightly off topic, but where is the best place to watch a Premierleague match in Hakuba? Very big game on this Sunday night not to be missed!!

Thanks again \:\)
