[jp]昨日、今日と乗鞍は晴天に恵まれ、多くのゲストが乗鞍バックカントリーを楽しんでいました。6日(水)−7日(木)はノーススター付近は雨でしたが、標高2200以上は６日は湿雪、7日は雨という事で8日(金)には点発生雪崩が何カ所も発生したようです。雪の安定する春山とはいえ注意が必要です。[/jp][en]It has been a good weather since yesterday and lots of people hike up to Mt. Norikura with Spring Ski Bus. It was raining around NORTHSTAR on Wed. 6th and Thu. 7th though it was snowing on 6th and raining on 7th above 2200m high. Because of that there were many point release avalanches on Fri. 8th. Spring snow is more stable than winter though you need to be careful.[/en]
[jp]昨日9日(土)にスタッフのルーベンと剣ケ峰(3026m)までハイクしましたが、天気も良く快適なハイクとなりました。ライディングは剣ケ峰からツアーコースに抜け、スキー場まで戻ってきましたが、雪は重めで斜度の無いところではスピードを維持するのに苦労しました。それでもこの時期に十分な積雪があり、楽しめるのはさすが乗鞍。今月いっぱいはバックカントリーツアーいけそうです。[/jp][en]I hiked up to Kengamine Peak (3026m) with one of our staff, Ruben yesterday and it was a great hike because of a good weather. We rode from the peak to tour course down to ski resort. The snow condition was heavy and it gave us a hard time to maintain the speed though there is enough lot of snow for having fun. We will be able to offer our backcountry tour by the end of this month.[/en]
