Snowboarding trip to Sahoro, Hokkaido

Saturday 11th January 2003
Elusive downhill slope Under the only gondola Another great shot

It was colder than the day before, but quite sunny and the fresh snow from last night made the slopes quite comfortable. The water tube was freezing even faster so I put the whole thing in my suit's pocket and it never froze again.

Breath-taking view Thrones next to the fireplace

The day went very well and I spent some time in the powder, off the main slopes. Feels incredible. Just have to learn to avoid the trees and not fall down. My triceps felt quite painful after pushing myself up so often. Lawrence hurt his head quite a few times, but I think he is getting used to it.
