Me and Bagofcrisps, and maybe another young dude here are starting to dream of our 2nd snowboarding holiday in Japan next winter.

The current ideas are in the poll. What would you do out of those options?

Cheers!

I don't see "2 weeks at Wada Toge" in your poll... You're missing out, I tell ya.

[big-will]

Well surely you want to try somewhere else this time. I'd do a wider tour and take in a few areas of Honshu if you have enough time and money.

[Toque]

I like the Nagano Tour

A little old and new for you.

[Fattwins]

or go way up north around capt, stag and co.

[BagOfCrisps]

Thanks folks keep them coming. It's interesting to see Niseko only getting 2 votes so far.

[sanjo]

I'd go for the Nagano or wider tour. So much in a fairly small region.

[happyhappy]

I'd explore a wider area if I were you, get to know a few places and see more of Japan.

[Creek Boy]

Yup, Id say Nags!

I did a 3 week tour of Nagano this winter, it was awesome. Cost me a fair bit but I had saved up and the experience was definitely worth it.

[BagOfCrisps]

What is the main reason people are choosing the Nags rather than the Nisex.

[gamera]

Perhaps because easier for them to go, BOC.
or maybe they want to come here to help my snow removing job

[Davo]

I went for the Nagano one, but the wider tour would be be better if time and finances allowed for it. Have never been further north than the Nozawa area. It's all good whatever you decide on.

[big-will]

Theres a lot of choice in a relatively small region with nagano. Niseko doesn't really offer that

[sanjo]

Get some nights staying with some friendly SJers. That'll save the old cash, they will be payable in beer more than likely.

[rach]

Any firm plans as to when you'll be coming over and for how long yet BagOfCrisps and 2pints?

[white-void]

If you've been to Hakuba, why not take a trip to Hokkaido and maybe do 2 places up there. It would make a change for sure, and you will probably like Aust..., sorry Niseko.

[giggsy]

Want others to join? Send a PM!

[BagOfCrisps]

Sent you a mail giggsy. But you'd have to promise not to mention Man Yoooo and all that rubbish.

Yes whitr-void, that is the main dilemma... do we want to go the same area but that has tons of choices nearby or up to Niseko. We are still consuming many pints of beer considering this one.

[2pints,mate]

I'm inclined to choose the choice of a Honshu tour.
