Gifu Area Powder Junkies is a English group. Having alot of group type in Facebook: close, open and secret and it is a CLOSED group. There are 34 participants in that group. So people rank it like a Tiny group. 402217943260550 is the identifier of this group with Facebook. Last update is on 2015-01-29 23:53:08.
The ski season is here, so I thought I would make this group to make it easier to organize: trips, rides, share info, quickly let people know you will be skiing somewhere etc.
A bit of info on the few mountains around here that I know about.

Expect to pay about the same prices your lift ticket for a full set of rentals.
Most places parking is between 1,000 – 2,000 for a full day
Most places also have one time lift tickets for those who might only do a few runs in a day. Prices range depending on the chairlift.
