Visitor Reviews of Asahidake
Mike Banks from Australia writes:
I had the deepest ski day of my life at Asahidake. Powder was over the head. Temperature -15 with 2.1% humidity. Unweighting out of each turn provided brief vision until being completely submerged under the snow in the next turn. Watching my buddies ski down towards me and seeing a mound under the snow that was their head was astounding. My 20+ years of skiing around the world were just a lead up to this sublime day – I had tears in my eyes. This is why I will always go back to this mountain – the best place in the world for lift accessed deep, deep powder.
