Hey FT
Are we going skiing next weekend?

[Fattwins]

yes we are going next weekend for sure. that is part of the reason I cant go this weekend

[Toque]

Cool

A good dry run then

[Fattwins]

Ok mate got everything plus a tight 4 man 4 season tent. no vestible(spelling toque?) though.
I got mini crampons cause I dont think I need the full version. For this weekend I think we need about the same amount of food as last time. Ill bring the ham and some munchie stuff if you supply the dinner stuff. weather right now looks good for saturday and sunday Ijust hope my boddy can hack it.

It was fun to watch the inlaws break out the gear. man do they have lots. they busted out 3 sleeping bags without blinking and had another 2 or 3 up stairs. I took a -5 bag with a cover. should keep me warm and tI shouldnt break into sweat this time. we practised setting up the tent as well it was funny to do it. fit takes about 10 minutes start to finish. they also shwed me a great way to break down and pack the tent to that keeps air out and pack small easily. I will start to sow the seeds of golden week today and ill tell you when I know.

On Friday Ill be at your bettween 10 and 11 I hope 10ish though. anything else?

[Toque]

Sounds good

It will be nice to have a bit more space in the tent.

I'll get the dinner stuff. Spagetti again probably.
Breaky and snacks let's just do on our own

[Fattwins]

ok i can sort that out but can we share you tuna spread?

[Toque]

I guess so
I'll bring some extra
Should I pick up some extra bagels as well?

[Fattwins]

i can bring my own buns that aint no thing but I figure its easy to just use your spread cause its tasty and light. ill grab some fruit also for us.

[Toque]

Serreche
Are you coming along this weekend?

I'll just pick up extra tuna spread then.

[Fattwins]

ill bring the cheese this time.

[Toque]

Like parma cheese?

[Fattwins]

yep

[SerreChe]

Ok guys, count me in!

I have not touched any snow for 2 weeks now, I am like a junkie in need for his fix.

Let me know where we should catch-up and when as well as when you plan to head back.

I will most likely drop my better half in some ryokan somewhere nearby during the weekend while I join you guys.

So we gonna sleep in a tent (thanks FT for bringing it along for all of us) that we will pitch once we arrive at the plateau right?

Let me know, I am an eager beaver! By the way, most likely can only check the web in the evening these days.

We will be leaving Takayama early Saturday morning and trying to get the first bus up to the top.
Would you be coming from the Nagano or Toyama
side?

-We will be coming back late sunday afternoon

-Ft is bringing a 4 person 4 season tent. Remember a matress

-Bring your own breaky and snack food. I am going to bring Spagetti and FT is bringing a ham. You can bring something along if you like. And remember to bring something to eat out of and something to eat with. Amazing how many people forget these things

[Fattwins]

We can meet in the bus station in the main lobby.

My tent is a japanese 4 person so it should fit 3 well enough.

ill bring a cup and an extra pot to cook or eat out of. I figure that my tent will have to go on the outside of my pack cause it is 2 bags. I think shouldve gone with the three season cover but oh well. 3 should make it a good trip kets hope the winds die down.

[Toque]

We can divide a bit of this stuff up in the morning.
FT do you remember when the first tram/train thingy left? I think it was around 8. But could be wrong.

I know we were way early last time but I think we should get there really early again because it is going to be really busy. This might be the busiest time for this area.
