Hiyodori Mine

We heard Tsugaike was going to be the better choice for a POW day, great tree runs, plus the added bonus it was one we had been to and enjoyed and also that we didnt have to rey on alternative transport to get there!
What craziness this morning! As dubbed by Stephen, all the 'Weekend Warriors' are out on the mountain today as it is Saturday - even more so as it's a POW day!
This is the first time we had to queue for lifts all week, but after the first couple of hours, when people dispersed themselves across the mountain, the queuing became much less.
Plenty of times, we got stuck coming down the powder runs, but it didn't take long for some of the tracks to become tracked out.
We got ourselves a DBD pass so that we could do tree runs. This basically entailed signing a form and watching an instructional safety briefing on YouTube before venturing into this terrain on our own... Wish us luck 🤞
A quick fried chicken and beer snack and off we go!Read more
