Hakuba Skies deliver a Snowflake Smack-Down
Powder Hounds tucked their tails between thier legs today as Hakuba skies dealt a snowfall smack-down. Too much snow?!!! How dare we say it! Too much powder? Is it possible? To us feisty Fidos who strain at the leash for waist deep powder days like this, we couldn’t imagine we would hear ourselves say it was just “too much powder.” But last night’s dump on top of this week’s phenomenal snowfall meant most of Hakuba was simply trying to dig itself out of the doghouse today. But every dog has it’s day, and tomorrow the powder hounds will unleash for yet another bitchin’ day in the snow.

Another SICK day in Hakuba
Well…I’m happy to report that the powder is still cranking in Hakuba. Another foot or so of fresh to fill in the tracks from the day before and some great visibility in the trees. Dropped some lines with Suzi who snapped away with her new toy – a telephoto lens.
