After some solid powder days in Hokkaido, New Year’s Eve will come with a bang! 💥
Featuring a fast-moving low, a snowstorm will kick off early on Hokkaido and reach central Honshu before the first Sake Bomb goes down the gullet. The storm will quickly clear out New Year’s Day, so after a quick nap, you should be getting deep and sunny that afternoon.

Minakami Ski Area, Japan. Heard of it?
Home to one of the best-kept powder secrets in all of Japan - Tenjindaira. As well as other great, lesser-known resorts like Hodaigi, Gala Yuzawa and a bunch more, Minakami is the perfect base for a multi resort Japan snow holiday!
Close to the Tone River, one of the largest rivers in Japan and famous for its hot springs with a long history. The opening of the Minakami Onsen hot spring around 1558-1570!
It's for this, and many other reasons why we chose to pick Minakami as the first stop of our Golden Snowmads Tour, Feb 11 - 21. Find out all details here:
