GROUP SIZE: Min 4 people - Max 6 people
In this tour we focus on hitting smaller, lesser known resorts in Central Hokkaido, with very few people. Hidden gems that will blow your mind. You don't need to go off-piste or into the backcountry if a resorts' on-piste slopes have 30cms of fresh snow, and there is no one around! When appropriate, we will also take you to the more famous resorts, including: Asahidake, Kamui, Furano & Pippu.
When applicable, will take you into the lift-assisted side & backcountry of these resorts, where you can ride or walk out (without the need of ski skins, snowshoes or a split-board) If a beacon, shovel & probe are required for a certain location, they will be provided for you). Our experienced, locally based guides, will choose the best location of the day, based on the conditions & wind. (Please read our google reviews!) We know where the best snow will be!

Accommodation: Central Asahikawa Powder base
Our 2027 Asahikawa guiding packages are based out of the Dormy Inn Asahikawa, widely considered the ultimate hub for chasing Central Hokkaido powder. Staying in the heart of Asahikawa gives us perfect daily flexibility to storm-chase the best snow across Kamui, Asahidake, and Furano, while placing you steps away from the legendary ramen shops and izakayas of the Asahikawa downtown district. A convenient 7-eleven is 30 metres away, directly across the road, for ATM, cold beer & snacks.
Top-Floor Natural Onsen & Sauna: The rooftop natural hot spring and cold-plunge sauna are included daily—essential after a hard day riding deep Hokkaido pow.
On-site coin laundry
Complimentary Nightly Ramen: The iconic Dormy Inn Yonaki Soba (hot soy-sauce ramen) is served free to all guests every night between 9:30 PM and 11:00 PM—the perfect post-shred late-night snack.
Basing out of downtown Asahikawa means we aren't locked into one mountain's weather pattern. If Asahidake is blasted by high winds and visibility drops to zero, we simply pivot our private vans 45 minutes to the sheltered tree lines of Kamui Ski Links or head down to Furano. You get the best snow in the region every single morning, with zero wasted storm days.
