We woke up to blue skies and no new snow today. Not exactly what we needed for continuing our powder quest. Nevermind I don't mind hitting the occasional groomer, esp with they are still corduroy. The groomers are pretty wide so big fast turns are the most fun.
There was still powder to be had of course. Ducking into the trees showed us some slightly heavier snow, and some of the slopes facing the wind had been affected a bit too. But with a bit of searching in different areas there were still lots of pow turns. Just not as epic as yesterday.
Also the legs are starting to feel it. End of a long trip and the last few days have been pretty full on too.
I rode with Bruce again today. We spilt off and regrouped throughout the day depending on which runs were calling our names. It's a good system.
All we need now is for some more snow tonight to finish things off with a bang. It is in the forecast but i'm not sure if it will hide the tracks from today. You never know though.
Tonight I decided to head over to the indoor pool at the resort hotel across the road. Rusutsu has this massive resort complex with an amusement park, lots of restaurants and activities for the family. The shopping area is set up like a european city, it's very strange but maybe also very Japanese.
Anyway the pool is a wave pool so we had a bit of fun on that. Plus it also has a waterslide. The main reason for going over though was the spa, hopefully it has made a difference on the muscles. One last push tomorrow.
