Day 32 - Hoppo Bunadaira - Such a fun day teaching three kids how to ski better. They’re working at Shibu Onsen at a really famous ancient ryokan for months and didn’t understand that we have Japan’s largest and highest altitude ski resort right in town. I skied 4 runs, 6 km.

Day 31 - Terakoya - Stunningly beautiful day all day. My buddies came up from Karuizawa and we had perfect fluffy powder and firm but super soft pistes on Bunadaira, Nishitate, Higashitate, Takamagahara, and Terakoya. It was a real joy. I skied 12 runs, 18.4 km.

Day 30 - Hoppo Bunadaira - spent the night at a great inn that is only accessible via skis or snowcat/snowmobile, and woke up to 40+cm of fresh fluffy goodness and heavy snow falling. It was a short day due to an afternoon commitment but I skied 9 runs, 14.9 km.

Day 29 - Nishitateyama and more - Packed my small backpack and on my first run checked in to an inn on the ski runs. I ended up skiing the most of any day this season going from Yamanoeki all the way to Okushiga. It was cloudy cold and surprisingly uncrowded despite being the middle of a three day weekend. I skied 20 runs, 32 km.

Day 23 - Hoppo Bunadaira - (sorry for the lack of updates these past few days) This is from December 31st. Big rain the night before destroyed the pistes but at least there were no rocks. I skied 8 runs, 9.4 km.

Day 20 - Hoppo Bunadaira - such a difference a day makes. It was terrific at Bunadaira for their opening day. Though the snow depth is very shallow the pistes were extremely fast💨 I also got a couple runs in at Nishidate as well. I skied 8 runs, 10.1 km.
