evoTrips Takes Japan by Storm: Update 3

evoTrips Japan 2012: Update 3

There is still a bit of a buzz from this year’s evoTrip now that we haDamian Cromwellve been back here in the Northwest for a couple of weeks. To see 16 people from around the nation sign up for a trip with evo and the friendships that developed as a result has been really rewarding. Admittedly, when we opened this up through evo.com, we weren’t quite sure who all would join  us. We quickly learned that the diversity in origins, age, snow-sliding devices, sex, backgrounds and personalities made for a really dynamic group with the passion for travel and the mountains working as a common thread that would stitch us all together.

evo Take Japan By Storm: Update 2

evo Trips Japan 2012: Update 2

Hakuba is part of the Nagano prefecture of Japan which hosted the 1998 Winter Olympic Games. It’s home to so many different ski resorts.

The evo Trip crew spread out and hit Happo One, Hakuba 47, Cortina and Tsugaike-Kogan ski areas over the last couple days in the warm sunshine.

japan skiingIt was so warm some skied topless! Watch out for sun burns. We followed up the ski days with incredible food and drink in town. No one in our group had experienced better sushi and sake.

Our Japan experience went well beyond the mountains today; we visited the snow monkeys and looked for spiritual awakening. The snow monkeys were incredible, so human-like as they bathed in their hot springs. We followed up the monkey business with a stop at the Zenkoji Temple to rub incense smoke on our bodies for good health and find enlightenment in a pitch-black tunnel below Zenkoji’s main hall.japan snow monkeys

Trip member Chris Edwards says:

“Japan has been incredible so far. Blue bird pow days, snow monkeys, sushi, sake, new friends and lots of laughs. There isn’t much else I could ask for. I’m so glad I came on this trip.”
