Hopefully, this will help someone: 2023/2024 update. 2023 - I skied Kiroro Jan 2023 after a huge snowfall, bringing 50-60cm of snow. If the top lift is not open, there is literally nothing to do on the resort. Like nothing. Also, they sometimes close top lift due to wind. 2024 - I skied Kiroro in Jan 2024 and this year, December, was not really good in terms of snow base. So 12th Jan conditions were so-so, small trees and bushes everywhere, barely couple runs where you can connect several turns in a line. Not a line that I'd say was worth the visit.
