Hokkaido pristine slopes
we ski towards
the rising sun
As winter gives way to spring, diehard skiers and boarders shift their gaze to next season—and we encourage you to look east. Japan's little-known ski slopes offer some of the best powder on the planet, and with over 500 annual inches each season, the island of Hokkaido is the place. Pair epic skiing with panoramic views that stretch into the Sea of Japan, après joys like all-natural hot spring onsens and the izakayas (Japan's take on the tapas bar) , and lift tickets that go for a fraction of those found in the west, and the only thing left to decide is when you're going to go.
