This year we will try winter-camping and attempt some extended trips around Kamikochi in early April, but usually we are based in Yuzawa and the surrounding area (Tanigawa-dake, Makihatayama, etc). If you read Japanese and are interested in ski-moutaineering or ski-touring, a great resource is the Yamaski-ML. The Yari/Hotaka area has some great lines definitely!

The guys at the hut told me that the route from Jigoku-no-tani up to Mt Bessan and along to Tsurugi would be pretty much impassible when more snow fell. Most people who go up there from Dec onwards go via Hayatsuki-one (like these guys http://www.tam.ne.jp/seil/newpage4.htm). I took a look at your site - that Yari trip looked outstanding!

You have some very impressive photos and stories! I also do some hiking in Japan, but the winter is when I really get excited (I do mostly backcountry boarding). Looking forward to hearing more about your trips here. Hello there, I found your blog while doing research on Tsurugi. You have some very impressive photos and stories!
