Japan Photo Report 2013, Part V

Before the really big rain...

02/11/2013 • by Patrick Fux

Patrick Fux Japan photo reportage part 5 — Long-term tests confirm that waste bags are sometimes the best way to cross the river. Dry feet are almost guaranteed.

Before the big rain, I had a few more great days in the backcountry. Although I had to mount the skins a bit more than I would have liked, the compensation in the form of excellent descents was very okay.

Before the big rain, I had a few more great days in the backcountry. I had to mount the skins a bit more than I would have liked, but the compensation in the form of excellent descents was very okay. But then it came and how... the rain and super warm. That was the end of JaPow for the time being. The following days were to die for. Ice rinks, absolutely terrible conditions on and off the piste. Day after day, someone sacrificed themselves and went out first thing in the morning to report to us in case we did get out of bed. Four long days of total exhaustion - and time for a bit of culture.

Lots of sun, lots of fresh snow and great adventures in the backcountry. In part 4 of Patrick Fux's powder report from Hakuba and the surrounding area, you can see that even in the powder paradise of Hakuba, the sun can shine in high winter, only to soon give way to the next snow clouds.

Powder, trouble with the ski troll, sun (a rather rare guest in the permanent snowfall paradise) and even more powder. In the third part of Patrick Fux's Japan sequel report, Japan nevertheless shows its classic winter side: lots of fresh snow!

In the second part of Patrick Fux's photo reportage, we Alpine freeriders learn that periods of poor snow conditions are by no means a purely European problem. Quite the opposite. But seek and ye shall find is also true in Japan and so there are also some great shots to enjoy in this part. To be continued!
