On New Year’s Day
Mt Fuji’s snowy height

And the heartiest of new yer greetings to you too.
Thank you for all the great postings of 2011 and I hope that we are treated to the same interesting insights and photos in 2012.

Following your Avalanche posting, I have now finally got my hands on a copy of Snow Country Tales and am throughly enjoying it.

Thanks for the enormous amount of work you put into your postings. They are fascinating to read and I often wonder whether you have a large archive at home, or whether you track down the historical information & photos online.

Iain: good to hear you've got your hands on Snow Country. Might have to return to that book soon - by the way, the Naeba chapter is quoted in the Naeba chapter of Hyakumeizan ....

Hanameizan: all of the above - have a look at the References. It's all about standing on the shoulders of others.... Alas, the archive at home is not so large, though.
