Happo-one / ◎300cm / Cloudy2017.Mar.02
The sun cast the sunlight sometimes in the early morning, but the clouds got thicker and thicker as time passed. As of 10:00 a.m, it was snowing when I got of Alpen Quad lift. It was windless and not so cold. In Usagidaira and Panorama Course, I found many skiers practicing toward “The 71st Happo-one Riesen Slalom Competition”.
[Usagidaira]
The groomed areas in the south of Usagidaira and along Kurobishi No.2 Quad were nicely firm and in good condition. I was impressed by the skillful turns by experts.

Riesen Slalom Competitiom, a traditional ski race in the totally 2,500m slope, had started at 9:00 a.m. There are a lot of entries of various generations, so the divisions are classified by ages. This competition will last until tomorrow. There is also an open division.
[Riesen Slalom Course]
Riesen Slalom was nicely firm and good to speed up. The participants went down in front of us fast. As I skied down to the bottom, the snow changed into corn snow from the lower area of Usuba.
