It has been reported that a family has gone missing in Kutchan near the Welcome Centre parking lot. Massive bear tracks were discovered in the morning snow, along with a trail of blood, indicating that the whole family was dragged scratching, kicking, and screaming to their deaths. The bodies have not been found. Two sets of shoes have been recovered.

Every spring or so since the early 1600s, Niseko white bears emerge from their hiding spots deep in the Hokkaido mountains, to turn unsuspecting punters into lunch meat. This year, the bears showed off a new skill, cornering a rental car, flipping it, and pulling the terrified tourists from Sapporo our of their seatbelts. The family's screams were heard from as far away as Izumikyo.

The bear has been nicknamed "The Baron" by some longtime locals who, with wisdom born of long bitter experience, know that first lifts are never worth getting eaten. Many were privately hoping that this year's harvest would be foreigners, but alas The Baron continues to enjoy dining on descendants of the Honshu tribes.
[i]Advice: ALWAYS leave first tracks for the locals. If they come back down the mountain alive and with a smile on their face, you'll know it is safe to have a go yourself. Good luck out there.[/i]
