Yasuyuki Shimanuki gets some super dry waist deep Powder off Hanazono 2 in Niseko Japan. Niseko is off the Hook with the amount of powder it gets... They say it has the best lift accessible Backcountry Powder on the Globe
Niseko is a geographical magnet for weather systems delivering snow storms from the Siberian Peninsula and after filling with moisture on their way across the Sea of Japan ...these massive fronts collide and Hanazono in Niseko is the first place in their path dumping up to 16 metres of snow in a season...
Comprising of four main areas—Hanazono, Hirafu, Higashiyama and Annupuri — Niseko receives more than 16 metres of powder snow from November until May as Siberian storm systems sweep across the Sea of Japan with amazing regularity.
Niseko is the second snowiest resort on the globe and with a mere 8% water quantity, the snow is dry and deep and provides some of the most exhilarating powder skiing and snowboarding experiences anywhere in the world. It is not unusual for guests to find themselves enveloped in snow, or as we say, “experiencing the White Roomâ€, as they bounce their way down the slopes.
The Hanazono area with its North East Aspect is renowned for its extra dry snow and receiving that little bit more.
It offers incredible tree skiing and riding with access to some of the best off piste-skiing and riding in the world.
You can climb the Peak to experience 1,000 vertical meters of perfect powder—1308m down to Hanazono 308 where the bells are mounted at exactly 308m.
On a clear day, this climb is rewarded with the ultimate ski or ride experience, where views from the Peak are truly awe-inspiring, spanning from the slopes of nearby Mt Yotei (the North Island’s answer to Mt Fuji) all the way to the ocean’s edge.
