Sapporo Teine Trail Race 2023

Finally made it to the Sapporo Teine Trail Race! It was a long and tough build up to get to the race but I was happy that I could stand on the start line and give it my all. I apologize for all the bell sounds. One of the mandatory pieces of gear to carry was a bear bell to warn them of our approach. Doubt there were any bears around but good to have either way. Thanks to my friend Ruairidh for...

    Loved the prehike reflection time. Sometimes I feel like living in a foreign country can be mentally taxing in ways I don't even register, so I end up, not burning out necessarily, just allowing myself a little more "laziness" at times. But it's so easy to stay in that place, and you working through those thoughts was such a good reminder that it's worth the extra planning to keep on adventuring, discovering. Also liked seeing the hike prep, and you talking about the little extra measures you took to be prepared, even on a day hike. Woop woop! Ok, didn't mean for this comment to become a novel lol awesome shots/editing etc. Glad i found this!

    • @tinwenwalks

      Oh shoot. Meant to ask a question. I've noticed a lot of people talking about renting a car as the best option for getting around Hokkaido in general. I'm going to fly up there from the Yokosuka area, and I would like to spend a little over a week, which makes renting a car slightly more expensive if I'm going to be doing a little traverse during that time anyway. Based on your adventuring around that area, would you recommend biting the cost and renting a car to make the most of it, or is it actually possible to enjoy around the parks and such with the limited public transport? Thanks for any input!

    Hey Conor, awesome video and phenomenal views! I ran into your video because I'm planning a snowshoe/mountaineering trip there in March. Have you hiked this trail when it is under heavy snow? Is it doable as a thru-hike from Kurodake to Asahidake (looks like 10-11k or so) within a day? Any advice would be great -- thanks!!

    • @conoracutt
      @conoracutt 6 місяців тому

      Hey thanks for the comment! I haven't hiked this area in the winter but I know people ski and board around Asahidake. To snowshoe across the whole range would be a long, long day I would think. I wouldn't suggest it unless you were very experienced and knew what you were doing.

    • @conoracutt
      @conoracutt 8 місяців тому

      Yes it is. As long as you take appropriate precautions for bears, bring enough food and water and are generally pretty fit then for sure. It is not that far away from town and isn't particularly steep. There is also a cable car to catch back down most of the way if you need.

    • @conoracutt
      @conoracutt Рік тому

      I've done some XC skiing in the past but I'm not at all naturally skilled at skiing so it has taken me some time to get comfortable with it. Also it is sometimes hard to get on a XC course here as there is so much snow they often aren't groomed early in the mornings when I have time to train. I might try and do more in the future though!
