A Journey Ends And Another Begins

First photos from TraKtorman on the island of Honshu. Note the blue skies and then compare them to much greyer conditions on Hokkaido, in Niseko, where Rosco reports more snow, high winds and big crowds.

Alas, Rosco's sojourn to the land of white is nearing an end but for a rare treat we have photos (courtesy of Bill) that show Snowfighter Orange in his natural (and favourite) environment.

I always find it a huge advantage to have first runs in an unknown resort under blue sky conditions
