First Tracks in Hirafu

by | Nov 8, 2016 | News, Resort, Winter Sports | 0 comments

It is raining in Niseko today but the next dump is due to hit tomorrow…anyway happy memories from yesterday!

After the last few dumps the mountain has certainly been looking ripe for the ‘First Tracks‘ picking. It looks like there have been quite a few people scoring First Tracks this season and yesterday again looked prime – a few eager friends headed up and sent us a few glory shots! The first batch are from Andrew who set off early to make the most of the November pow higher up on the mountain. Andrew tapped out at the the top of the Center 4 lift and scored some “surprisingly” sweet turns.

A bit behind Andrew was Tsutomu and his friend who also hiked to the same spot and scored possibly the first few faceshots of the season!
