Feb 2012:  the trip of a lifetime. Away with some of my best mates, four good men who can hold a drink, and the snow…..knee deep powder all morning…. again. It’s been snowing almost a meter every night, and the runs have been amazing. We got some blue sky to go with it – unbelievable. Doing the walk up to the top of the mountain today. I thought I’d do some research on the area.

The Niseko United ski and snowboard area is built around the natural terrain and beauty that attracts snowboarders and skiers here from all over the world every year. The consistant winds from Siberia meet the moisture over the sea of Japan producing an average of 14 meters of powder every season. Unique with it’s low altitude dry powder at 8% moisture content, Niseko’s snow is something you must experience under your skis or snowboard!
