Was I worried the mountain woul...

มุมมอง 1.8Kปีที่แล้ว
#niseko #ニセコ #japow NISEKO PEAK TOUR From G3, we hiked to the peak and went down North Face aiming for the fence. This day, the snow was excellent, but visibility was poor. Thanks to the Fatmap app, we could see our exact location. Once we reached the fence, we went to the speed sign and started hiking up the backside of Higashione. It was a low angle ascent and we didn't have to make any sharp...
NEW YEAR'S NISEKO - DEEP POWDER IN HIRAFU!
มุมมอง 2.3Kปีที่แล้ว
The crowds are back in Niseko. This year, the peak gates remained closed until January 6th. But it didn't matter. We were still able to ride deep untouched powder without even going to Miharashi. This video shows you where we went - Super, Super Ridge, Ohiroma, Furiko and Onsenzawa. Be in line for the Center 4 lift when it opens. Tip - on deep days when the peak gates are open, do one run down ...

NISEKO - HIKING UP AND RIDING MIHARASHI DURING A BLIZZARD!

The snowstorm earlier this week brought back memories from one day, almost exactly two years ago, when almost all lifts in Niseko were closed due to a raging storm. We hiked up the Holiday Course to do a couple of Miharashi runs. It was awesome! #niseko #japow #ニセコ Music: Epidemic Sound
MIHARASHI DREAMING - FINDING AND RIDING THE GLADES - NISEKO GRAND HIRAFU
มุมมอง 3.6K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Once you exit the Hirafu Gondola, the entrance to Miharashi, one of the biggest in-resort off-piste areas in Niseko, is right there, to your right. Then you look up. What you see is an uphill hike, which is enough for many people to say, "Nah, I'm not hiking". The hike is actually not so steep and takes only 5 to 10 minutes. But it’s enough to deter many people from going up, which is also why,...

NISEKO PEAK - EAST FACE - POOR VISIBILITY - YET FANTASTIC
มุมมอง 2K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Niseko is powder heaven. When the peak gates are open, you always go. On most days during powder season, it snows a lot, visibility is poor, and the wind is really strong. This was one of those days. And it was deep. To make the most of this run, we used the FATMAP app and other GPS devices to locate the fall-line we wanted to ride. We nailed it and arrived at the 'ideal landing area'. If you w...

NISEKO PEAK HIKE IN 30 SECONDS - たった30秒のニセコピークハイク
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!
Early to mid-January and mid-February are two of the best times to visit Niseko. Usually, there are more powder dumps early to mid-January than in mid-February. On the other hand, the peak gate opening is more consistent in February. If it was my choice, I'd go for early to mid-January.
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.
Thanks. I always carry avvy gear when I go to the peak, or out any gate in general.
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?
I've gone solo many times. Many others do too. Just be aware of the risks. Visibility can be a big issue if you're not familiar with the surroundings. No tree wells in Niseko.
is it still good if im going in march?
First week of March can be good. The rest of March is a hit or miss. Was great in 2022, crap in 2023, and amazing in 2024.
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?
Yes, yes, yes.
Is this Niseko official channel?
No, it's not.
Nevermind if it's official. Based on my experience there, it's very accurate and more helpful than any other info I can find.
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?
If you go out the gates, you need to be aware of the risks.
You videos are amazing thank you! I would love to send you a tip! You you have a option ?
Thank you for liking my videos! Continue watching!
niseko is shit, over priced, overcrowded. and youre wrong, its not the powder capital of the world.
On the wrong day, in Hirafu, all can be true. But on the epic days....... if you're prepped .......
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 🤙🏽
One to two hours depending on where you go down and end up at the bottom. If you stick to East Face and Higashione, you might be able to do 3 runs before G3 closes at 13:30, maybe even 4 runs if you're strong.
Thanks for your reply! I will be back next season for sure 🤙🏽
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.
