Chase the big winter storms in Hokkaido. We spend 6 days riding Hokkaido’s best lift accessed, resort and backcountry zones with an optional cat ski day. Your guide and coach is one of the most experienced and qualified professionals working in Hokkaido who has a lifetime of experience riding in these areas as well as reading the conditions and terrain. The terrain you’ll ride ranges from big mountain alpine lines to undulating tree riding and expect some of the deepest, lightest and driest powder in the world.

6 days guiding
You’ll spend 6 days riding with your guide. You’ll get tips and feedback along the way to improve your freeriding, including riding trees, steeps, drops, deep powder and how to read the terrain. You will also improve your use of avalanche safety equipment, and gain knowledge on travelling safely in backcountry terrain. We keep our group size to maximum of 6 ladies, so you can get the most out of the sessions. This ensures you get the most out of your time with us, and keeping the group small means less time waiting and more time riding powder!

Optional Cat Ski Day
The best way to access a blissful day of untracked powder is by snow cat. Each run delivers 450-650m of vertical and you’ll get 6-9 runs per day. The cat ski operation is just 40 minutes from Niseko, and you will get to spend a full day riding untracked powder with oceanfront views. It’s a place so beautiful, you’ll get the experience of a lifetime. There is a variety of terrain that you’ll explore including wide-open former course runs, old growth glades and long, steep bowls.

Snow and Conditions
Hokkaido scores it’s biggest storms during January. What you can expect on this tour is cold temperatures and deep powder. Most days you can expect to ride powder that’s anywhere from boot to waist deep. Even if we don’t get fresh snow overnight, the cold temperatures and our local knowledge will ensure you’ll be able to ride light dry snow days after a storm.

We make sure all our guests stay in quality accommodation that’s in the best location. Throughout the tour you’ll stay at one of Niseko’s newest hotels, Always Niseko. Our comfortable twin share rooms are equipped with 2 single beds and offer glimpses of Mt Yotei that will have you feeling zen in no time. Each room has a great heating, private ensuite bathroom, TV, and free WiFi. Every morning you’ve got a hot buffet breakfast to enjoy in the restaurant and each night you’ve got access to the in-house bar.
