Just spent two fantastic days at Asihadake, even though fresh snow was minimal. Description needs to be corrected = there is only 1 gondola (ropeway), not 6 lifts. Definitely not a beginner hill, and snowboarders should bring a splitboard or snowshoes to access the best terrain otherwise be prepared to boot pack. It was not worth buying a full day ticket as we did wait up to 30 mins in the morning due to lines, but by noon the wait is max 10 mins. Finally, heed the warnings that this is back country sliding with no patrol and no avalanche mitigation. (note from the editor: updates has been made regarding lifts and terrain.)
