I see they are opening up the road that connects Shiga Kogen and Gunma tomorrow. Hurrah!

Anyways, can someone tell me the name of the very top part of Shiga Kogen, the highest point?

Cheers
Pies.

I really enjoyed driving from Manza onsen to Yokoteyama few years ago.
Karuizawa - Manza Onsen or Kusatsu Onsen - Shiga Kogen, there are many fun spots and it's my favorite driving course.

Good road, I like that too.
Some people believe football is a matter of life and death. It is much, much more serious than that

Went yesterday. Great ride. Seeing snow up there even made me want to get the board out again.

I might be making a trip up to Nagano next weekend.

I don't suppose it's really busy up there just after the resorts have closed up for the season?
