Some additional pictures from Hokkaido and Mt Niseko here: Hokkaido- February 2011

Hole in the sky.
I usually don't take pictures of people skiing (prefer snowboarding). However, I thought this picture came out quite well. It was completely random. I had brought my camera up to the top of Mt Niseko hoping to take a few pictures. It was cloudy, but I wanted to capture some of the terrain. As I got about halfway down the mountain, the sun broke through a patch of clouds... and a skier happened to be cruising by right as the rays of light were shining down in his direction. Pretty cool!

Sepia dreams.
Beautiful view of Mt Yotei... The little village of Hirafu sitting in its shadow.

Looking down from the top of Mt Niseko... a snowboarder prepares himself to make the descent down the steep face. Mt Yotei in background.

Sampling some of the finest unfiltered sake that Japan has to offer... At a nice little Japanese restaurant (that I think was called Suikoden??) in Hirafu. Great sake and great food.
**Update: Restaurant is actually called A Bu Cha (thank you Cherry & Ada)

Looking down on Mt Yohei (active volcano) from on top of Mt. Niseko. With views this beautiful, it's hard to pay attention when you're riding.

This is what exhaustion looks like after a day of snowboarding chest deep powder. By the end of the day, I could barely move my legs... but it was totally worth it!!
