Vivienne Booth from UNITED KINGDOM writes:

Great location on this mountain for skiing and snow boarding, plenty of room for both and very friendly staff on the lifts and in restaurant etc. Excellent instructor for a two hour lesson, good value at 3.000yen. This ski jo certainly has our vote of satisfaction and is worth a trip.
