Tennis

fine tennis courts.（55courts） Cool summer

conditions
Back Country and Nature Ski
You can feel more familiar with the nature
of winter when you are skiing or snowboarding
out of piste.
If you put corss-countryboots oｒ snowshoes
and walk into the snow-covered field, you
may find some footpirnts and wild animals
running through the bush.
However, keep in mind that you are now facing
to the ever changing nature with unfathomable
power.
Befor leaving, be sure to check the accessibility
of youｒ cellular phone as well as to check
the weather forecast. Blizzard often changes
the shape of the land and even the local
people sometimes lost the way in the familiar
mountain after the heavy blizzard. Getting
through the new layer of soft snow may exhausts
you very much.
Especially in spring time, you need to watch
out for the avalanches and be careful not
to fall down into the hidden river. Be sure
to prepare the right clothes, gears（beacon,
emergency blanket, disposable body warmer
and so on ）and high calorie foods for the
worst case. And it is highly recommended
to go out with a good local guide.
When your instinct tells you "stop and
return", follow his advice. Instinct
has been the bravest part of us.
