Mt. Bandai & Malrunuma Ski Resort


View of Bandai Alps







Rodney journeyed up north for a couple more snowboarding trips with friends. He, along with co-worker Yoshikawa-san and friend, Travis headed to a resort near Mt. Bandai on January 26. Two weekends later on February 16, Yoshikawa-san invited Rodney again to Malrunuma Ski Resort.


This year, the conditions were perfect for any winter-sport enthusiast. Here are a few photos of Rodney's recent trips. As you can see the views were phenomenal.




An immaculate view of Lake Inawashiro from high atop the gondala ride. This is the same lake where Rodney and Yoshikawa-san jet skied last summer.







Travis and Rod take a quick look at the mogul course just before crashing all the way down.
