Loved it! I haven't been skiing in several years and am not very good at it, but certainly enjoyed it. The powder over there is unreal, what a blast. Watch what you eat, you just never know what you're going to get! 😄
Absolutely love that place I've been there twice now snowboarding. Awesone stuff dude and after watching this i now have to start preparing for a third trip. 😜🤘
F yeah..Nate the Great straps on some sticks!! Looks like you time Japan right..I heard they are having a rough winter... But where's Weingarden? being serious for a second..that was a beautiful video to watch..just great!
Awesome to see you Nate out on the sticks in JAPOW. I'll never be able to keep up with you on the mtb (only started two years ago), but I know you live mostly in Summit in CO, and if you're ever in the Vail area, hit me up for skiing and a beer.
at one point it was like a half pipe down mountain, just up and down, lip to lip. the volcano was awesome, no where to go in avalanche though. awesome shots!!
Just came back from Hokkaido myself !! Asahidake was my favourite near Furano, Rusutsu is also quite good too. Too bad it was a record low snowfall year tho, but with a few bluebird days for backcountry tour like this its perfect
I was amazed how many skiiers were in the bottom of that crater. The closest I've ever gotten to backcountry skiing is showshoeing out to the base of Dragon's Tail, and watching the conga line skinning up.
Thank you for showing you do more than bike!!! Love the benchetlers!!! PS You might rip better than me on a bike, but come to Alta and I’ll show you how to ski!!!!!!!!!
Nice! I’ve always wanted to do a mtb/pow skiing channel in CO. What pass do you ski in CO? You should do a skiing post once a week through the winter 🤙🏼
I stopped buying passes in Colorado 2 years ago. Not into the resort scene around here anymore after holding a pass for 20 years. I hide in the woods now, lol Wish I had time to make more skiing content. MTB keeps me pretty busy.
Wait a second... Where is my bike??. First inaugural winter edition FCF. Grab some Sake and enjoy.
Sushi, sake, and skis....SICK🤘
Nice vid shredder 🍣 🎿
Living my best life, lol
One of your BEST videos. Nice!
Bet you get on some good missions back home too, support this
Watching this after the Ghost of Yotei trailer:)
I hiked and rode this a couple years ago, memory will stay with me forever, thanks for the reminder.
An experience I will remember for a lifetime.
Nate, Great video!!! While I love the MTB vids, I love your outdoor adventure, and your bike builds! Keep shooting and safe travels!
I was just wishing a couple days ago that someone would do TH-cam series on backcountry skiing in your Follow Cam Friday style! Thanks!
slhmtb check out Cody Townsend’s series titled FIFTY. It’s great.
@@scnomad3626 yeah love his series too!
@@scnomad3626 Yup, Cody is the man. I have been following along loosely.
This is soooooo Sweet!😎❤️ Thats the right way Nate! 🤜🏼🤛🏼
Nice change of pace Nate 👍 I have spent the last 12 years snow boarding in Japan just love the people and food as well.
Nice man. This definitely won't be my last trip to Japan. Such amazing culture.
Another awesome video! Always look forward to new content!
A top 5 fav YT Channel for me!
Thanks for watching!
So its official, Nate Hills can shred on the Bents. Are you awesome at everything? So stoked for you and your crew man. I WILL get there one day.🙏
I suck at most things actually. Skiing has been a huge part of my life for 25 years, you just wouldn't know it by my current profession, hah.
Yess Nate !!! I love freesking and love mtb, so....bomb combo!!!
Good to know that you are a skier
Great video. Nice to see you enjoying time off the bike 👍🏻
Jealous of the amazing food, not to mention the great looking pow! Solid vacation, cheers Nate!
The new drone was perfect for this! This looks so fun
What a great change of pace. EPIC!
I am as much into skiing as riding bikes.
So good! Love the schralping in all forms. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
It's all sending at the end of the day.
Hell Yeah!!! Now that was badass!!!
Love the JaPow! great to see you shred this amazing place
It was a pleasure to ski with you - and watch that smooth form
What the hell? You have a TH-cam???
@@natehills9388 no. haha. It just made me sign in. I think this is my 3rd TH-cam comment ever
@@blakegordon4201 lol. Let's start planning for next year. That onsen won't soak itself.
Shredding POW...EPIC! Looks like you've got your drone...hope you also had your rock skis for that volcano segment. Very cool!
Awesome Nate. Love the overhead drone footage.
Loved it! I haven't been skiing in several years and am not very good at it, but certainly enjoyed it. The powder over there is unreal, what a blast. Watch what you eat, you just never know what you're going to get!
😄
Best food of my life! ha
I agree they have awesome food. Cheers
Absolutely love that place I've been there twice now snowboarding. Awesone stuff dude and after watching this i now have to start preparing for a third trip. 😜🤘
No place like Japan.
Did ya hit up the strawberry field section at Hanazono? Probably my favorite!
Fun! It makes me want to snowboard again!
Get out there!
Gotta love this Ski adventure.
Quality back country skiing Nate!
Went to Hakuba 2 years ago. Japan is so amazing. Have to check out Hokkaido after seeing this.
F yeah..Nate the Great straps on some sticks!! Looks like you time Japan right..I heard they are having a rough winter... But where's Weingarden?
being serious for a second..that was a beautiful video to watch..just great!
This is a historically shit winter in parts of Japan. We had no trouble finding soft, deep snow to ski every day though. Best of times. I miss James.
O my Nate !! You guys are so Lucky all that POWDER !!! I'm off zakopane in poland for 2 weeks ski instructing ! Have fun !!
Enjoy your trip.
Love it, keep the ski content coming!
Love it! Poor Pete all alone in Colorado
Pete feeds and walks himself ;)
Another awesome video!
More skiing please! This was great!
Thanks for watching!
Great video! Got me jazzed to ski
That is epic. Keep Hammerin Pete.
Awesome to see you Nate out on the sticks in JAPOW. I'll never be able to keep up with you on the mtb (only started two years ago), but I know you live mostly in Summit in CO, and if you're ever in the Vail area, hit me up for skiing and a beer.
Amazing. I dont know what snow Is but someday I will travel to a place not so tropical as my country, Guatemala. Thanks for the upload
Do you surf?
at one point it was like a half pipe down mountain, just up and down, lip to lip. the volcano was awesome, no where to go in avalanche though. awesome shots!!
Kick-ass footage. Compelling break from the MTB.
That was legendary
Super awesome!!!
great video as always bro
Just came back from Hokkaido myself !! Asahidake was my favourite near Furano, Rusutsu is also quite good too. Too bad it was a record low snowfall year tho, but with a few bluebird days for backcountry tour like this its perfect
Really well put together vid 👍
How long does it take to the top? And could you let me know additional informations about where to start hiking?
Thanks for amazing video😊
This. This was epic
I was amazed how many skiiers were in the bottom of that crater. The closest I've ever gotten to backcountry skiing is showshoeing out to the base of Dragon's Tail, and watching the conga line skinning up.
I love the ski content
Its awesome!
Such a cool vid!
Love it stunning as always 😘
Thank you for showing you do more than bike!!! Love the benchetlers!!! PS You might rip better than me on a bike, but come to Alta and I’ll show you how to ski!!!!!!!!!
I've storm ridden 50+ days at Alta. Love that place.
Very cool video man! Makes me want to be there \m/
I was riding Yote in January 2020 as well! Wondering if it was the same day haha
Cool mountain!
Still very cool! Shoulda got a “ski bike” for the cross over!!😂
Last thing I need is more bikes, lol
Nate Hills C’mon man!! N+1!😜
@@natehills9388 I hope I never say those words 😂
Ski bike would be amazing! But skiing is fun too.

You have done well Nathonson!
Love it.
👍🏻👍🏻
awesome !
Looks like an awesome trip! Now that I live up north I may have to take up skiing or snowboarding. But why do I always take up expensive hobbies?!
It's quite a bit cheaper than riding bikes if you ski in the backcountry actually. Get it!
nice 🥳🥳🥳
sick views
The Yeti is lonely bro lol take care👊💪👍
Siiiiiiick!!!
Nice vid! Mixing it up. I had heard Hokkaido was low tide this winter but it looks not bad here.
It is very low-tide by Japan standards. This would be a record season if we were in Colorado though, lol
Nice! Warren Miller's got nothing on you. Well, maybe a little. But you're not far off.
No place for a YETI 🥶
will you upload raw footage of you skiing or is that on patreon?
The longer format version of this is available on Patreon.
How much travel do those skiis have? 😂
120

You are second person who I know what is skiing right now in Japan ☝️and NOT inviting me !!!!! Am I ugly or whaaat ☹️☹️☹️

Maybe it was an APP that journeyed you there instead.

Your GoPro angle was tilted up way too much.

Didn’t know monks drink cocktails 🍸 🤔
