As 24-25 season is coming up, this is the best video to review the BC of Niseko. excellent times in BC come from a lot of preparation and knowledge for the safety.

how are you replacing Fatmap this year? Strava sucks

Welcome to the world of click bait, sharing too much information without talking about the risks and how dangerous it can be. Love that robot voice btw

what do you recommend now fatmap is gone?

Too bad FatMaps is no more. Is there an alternative for Japan you'd recommend?

How about doing Furano secrets.

Anyone going jan 2025? Lets ride some pow 😊

What camera are you using?

Hell yeah thanks for sharing this. We're you folks the first run of the day?

Do I have to walk to the base?

Great video ! We are planning a trip in Feb 2025, this gives us all the necessary info !

Great video mate.

this is so helpful. 10/10

For this coming ‘24/25 season, would you recommend arriving two weeks before Chinese new year (early- to mid- January), or two weeks after Chinese new year (mid-February). This would be our first ever trip to Hokkaido to ski, and we’re trying to maximize snow potential while minimizing crowds. Cheers!

Amazing info!!! I've visited Hanazono 3x and found this extremely useful for my 2-week trip there this year!

This is more than I could ever ask for! Great video, thank you so much! :)

This video was absolutely amazing. Great detail. Will be looking forward to riding a few of these. It doesn't feel like gear is necessary for some/most of these runs. Any insight into that subject would be cool.

I think this channel is too necessary for people who want to know Niseko in detail.

what is this app? I searched " fatmap" but nothing.

Any tips for going solo to the peak and riding powder all day? Avi dangers? Bad treewells?

is it still good if im going in march?

This is by far the best info on backcountry skiing at Niseko which is what most of us flying in care the most about. Could you do more video like this on more resorts, may be even ones not in Hokkaido? I heard while Hokkaido have the best pow, it is mellower compare to central japan. Is that true? Are there any resort backcountry/side country skiing skiing there too?

Is this Niseko official channel?

There is one other rule I'd like to see heeded: No Bogans please.

Unbelievably good video! See you in Feb, Niseko.

does niseko need to worry about avalanche?

You videos are amazing thank you! I would love to send you a tip! You you have a option ?

niseko is shit, over priced, overcrowded. and youre wrong, its not the powder capital of the world.

There have been backcountry deaths every year in Niseko recently. The quality of the riders and skiers going out there has gotten worse too.

Man you are the legend man

pero sapeaste todo ctm

G3 to H2 on to J4 Chess Mate.

The best guide for Niseko to properly enjoy powder! Thank you!!!

bro where is the snow 😢😢😢😢

Hiked to the top the day after this, went down the east face and it was the best snow of my life. Thanks for your video covering the best powder runs, it was very helpful. Great video and I wish you the best

great footage!

I was there that day and it was epic. Your videos really helped me make the most out of niseko, thank you!!

Have you gone up after the springlike condition? Looks like it snowed again right after the warm spell

I was there then - weird week. Some great powder, but also huge queues, ice, crust and too warm. Loved carving at speed up and down the gondola until 7pm every day… magic memories.

I was just there but didn’t make the hike. How long does it take to get back to the top for your second run? Thanks for making these videos 🤙🏽

I'm 34 years in Japan and professional guide in Japan 25 years, Nisseko rules are the most unfair and nonsense rules, when gates are open everyone is going out BC without any equipment, when gates closed are closed for everyone even professional guides whos working field is on the mountains but SKI RESORT PATROL is controlling to go outside the gate, outside the ski resort which isn't their field and they are not qualified for rescue operation performance which they charge. On other hand all promotion videos are shown are outside the gates which are 75% of the time CLOSED. Ski resort is charging all mountain ski passes on bad days too, when its clear the weather is nasty and gates will remine closed ! Cveto/guide

Last year a Russian man was dug up suspected to have perished in an avalanche outside out of the gates in Annupuri /niseko village in Yu no Sawa. Be careful

The avalanche report is currently suspended 😢

You are a legend for sharing this!

this is why I prefer to ski in Europe over the USA and japan , you have true freedom, you make your decision and live or die with the consequences that's the way it should be. Your give information and then make your decisions, not these rules let people make their mistakes. and people should make sure to their abilities

brilliant. thanks

Great video! I didn't get to go through the backcountry during my stay at Niseko but definitely have to try it next time!

Thank you for share this information with us for free

Great job putting this together, a very comprehensive resource. Thankyou for the effort!

I’m there right now! Great video again.
