I just booked my ticket to Japan. I'm going for 3 weeks to Hakuba. Haven't been to Japan before but with a lot of reasearch have found that the Hakuba region has the best parks and good pow runs.

I'm going early Feb 07 so it will definetly be dumping snow around this time. I haven't worked out whether that is a good or a bad thing yet.
