Question about Hokkaido
mitchpee replied to mitchpee's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
Okay great, yeah I heard the Aussies overwhelm the mountains. -
Is it that hard? I have a college degree? Maybe they will look into that a bit?

Hey guys, So I am looking to move to Hokkaido next winter. I am a local out here in Utah and ski at the Bird/Alta/PC. I was wondering what a good job would be to get in Hokkaido. Also what do the locals think of Americans working there? I have a ton of experience with backcountry in UT, VT, and CO. Are there a lot of great spots to build jumps and AT around everywhere? Thanks guys.
