Very interesting read. Some people get all the good 'work' to do.
I wonder how much Niseko has changed since 2001?

Good stuff. I've seen the book, a friend has it. It is excellent, definitely want to win this one. I'm totally jealous, some of those experiences must have been incredible.

Nice one schinken. I hope you landed on snow. We'll be in Nozawa early February. I hope it has snowed by then  I'd like to see that book looks omoshiroi.

Any time the powder is deep and I am with one or more good friends who love skiing as much as I do. Those are the greatest moments - the combination of the exhilarating feeling of skiing deep powder and sharing it with a kindred spirit. I don't think I have as much deep powder experience as Jimmy, but totally understand and agree with the sentiment. Now. Where's the snow?

Thanks for that, very interesting to read about people like Jimmy as much as I am rather envious of them.  Would love to see the book.
