Winter Break - Nozawa Onsen

Back from a four day winter break, where I took the opportunity to visit the Japanese Alps and ski at Nozawa Onsen.  Friday was a perfect blue sky day and the snow at the top of the mountain was beautiful, silky smooth powder to glide over.  A great day in a gorgeous location - the birthplace of skiing in Japan, 101 years ago.  This photo above is looking down over the lower middle third of the mountain, the village is under the mist/cloud and it another mountain range in the distance.

Below is a panaoroma from the other side of the mountain, taken on the amazing Skyline hometrail.
