Training Report - Kiritachi Pass 2

K participated in this training. It was minus 8 degrees Celsius at the Kiritachi Pass. This is the first time to train at the Kiritachi Pass since Kiritachi Pass.

It was snowing really hard at the Etanbetsu Pass. Unfortunately he didn't have time to train at the Etanbetsu Pass this day. Maybe next occasion, he'll train at the Etanbetsu Pass where it snows really hard.

The Etanbetsu Pass, the Kiritachi Pass where he's going to train this day and the Bifuka Pass (cf. Bifuka Pass) are situated in Horokanai. This Horokanai region is known as region where it snows a lot and the temperature is low. Its snow's quality is one of the bests in Northern Japan which has a worldwide reputation of good snow. However, Horokanai is almost untouched on the snow business aspects. We are interested in developping snow business here if foreign or domestic investors help us. This region has a lot of potential.
