March Adventures
3/15 (Sat) Gunma Hotaka - Intro to Snow Mountaineering
Gunma Hotaka is an amazing beginner level snow climb starting at the top of Kawaba ski area and climbing along a beautiful snow ridge over multiple sub peaks until reaching the pyramid summit. We will review the basics of crampon and ice axe use before starting the climb and hone those skills throughout the day. The entire climb is above tree line with amazing views thanks to the gondola that will whisk us up to the start of the climb. 14,900円 +tax (Transportation, crampon and ice axe rental, lift ticket, and Coco Heli rental included) |
3/20 (Thu) Tanigawa Dake Summit Snow Climb
This is an entry level snow hiking trip up to the summit of Tanigawa-dake. This peak offers amazing alpine scenery with sharp snow covered peaks all around. You will find it difficult to think that you are in Japan. The gondola will whisk us up high on the mountain, so we'll be climbing basically above tree line the entire time with great views throughout. To make things even more exciting we'll be sledding back down the mountain making short work of what took a lot of effort to get up having great fun in the process. 14,900円 (+tax) (Transportation, crampons, poles, sled, and lift ticket included |
