After an extremely mixed start to February, the snow situation soon got much better and we were able to experience numerous perfect days. Even though the snow wasn't always at its best and the wind was particularly strong this year, we still got our money's worth. When it storms, almost all ski resorts are often affected and there is only an alternative program left. The outlook is good and it should be more than okay until the end of February. Then it looks like a lot of rain - we'll see...

I was allowed to borrow a fish-eye lens and just wanted to experiment with it for a whole day. It was my first time photographing with it and it was great fun, even if a lot of the pictures were unusable. Still need a sponsor, then I'll buy one for myself.

After just two descents in one of the nine areas of Hakuba, we had had enough of the poor conditions and went to Cortina for pizza and onsen. You make the pizza yourself and it just tastes great.

And just one day later, all was more than right with the world. A solid 9 out of 10 on my scale and the picture speaks for itself. It was just a turn, and was so brilliant...

Japan Photo Report 2013, Part VI

Step by step, it got better again and the gloomy rainy days of early February were quickly forgotten. A little fresh snow fell from time to time, albeit not in the usual quantities. In between, the weather was sunny and very warm for a short time - and with it came an increased risk of avalanches. -

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. -

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.
