  • Lift: A days guiding using resort lifts involves both on and of piste skiing. Our aim is to get the best snow possible and this may require some traverse's either in or out of a particular area of the resort. See off piste skill level below.

  • Lift/Backcountry: Lifts are the first option, but by using a combination of lift access and backcountry access, we have a far greater chance of exploring the deep powder glades beyond the resort boundaries. See backcountry skill level below.

  • Backcountry: This is a day of exploring using climbing skins (or snowshoes for boarders). We do have some vehicle lift options in some areas, but generally, this is a day of exploring the superb backcountry of central Hokkaido. See backcountry skill level below.
