Hi guys! We are four norwegians going to Hakuba in january. We are looking for steep slopes, the steeper the better, with lots of powder and lively apres-ski/nightlife. Walking/shuttle distance to lifts is a plus. So we were wondering which area is recommended? Yours, Eirik

Ok, thank you! We'll check it out. Does the Shinkansen go all the way up to Hokkaido? And low-budget airlines, any to recommend? Thanks again! Eirik

Maybe I am describing Niseko, right now

All of Japan would be ok, we are just looking for the best suited resorts for our needs An ideal resort would be: -steep slopes with powder -party options -good communications -somewhat reliable weather -in proximity to a larger city Yours, Eirik

Hi there people! We are 4 norwegians planning to go skiing in Japan in early february 2012. Some of us went to Niseko in jan. -10, and the amount and quality of snow was astounding. This time we are looking possibly to combine Niseko with an another resort? Any good ideas? We are advanced telemark-skiers, and the steeper the slopes, the better. Hopefully combined with nose-deep powder And we are still moderately young, so a certain amount of aprés-ski is desired as well All tips and hints are welcome Yours, Eirik

Hi! We are 4 norwegians going to Niseko in january. We are semi-advanced telemark skiers. Any good suggestions on where/which resorts to see? Any hints are much appreciated. Yours, Eirik
