Steep & Deep in the Niseko Backcountry

It doesn't get much better than this in the backcountry... first tracks, wide open turns with gret snow!

Our client's yesterday on our Mt Chizenupuri and Mt. Nitonupuri tour enjoyed some of the best conditions of this season. After a 2 hour hike up Chizenupuri, it was rewarded with first tracks down the north face toward Mt. Nitonupuri. After a quick bite to eat and slipping on our hiking seals it was back up to the top of Mt. Nitonupuri for the start of our afternoons runs. Contact NOASC for information on our backcountry tours.

Moiwa Private Lift Access Backcountry Tour - Lots of POWDER!

NOASC Lift Access Backcountry Tour in Moiwa

The day started with the snow continuing to come down at around 2cm per hour after an overnight dumping of around 30cm+ (12"+).

Once at Moiwa the lift line was bigger than normal with everyone anticipating great powder turns. Well...Everyone wasn't disappointed. It was steep and deep. More snowfalls forecast in the next couple of days again.
