Shout out for this adventure sport company based out of Niseko, Japan.
They offer back country ski tours, shoeshoe treks, “snow rafting”, kayak trips and much more.
Even though I wasn’t a client, Lion Adventures helped me organize my transport to Mt Yotei when there was nobody else in town who could have helped.
Niseko is composed of six ski areas. It was in 2008 voted into the world’s top 10 ski resorts for the first time.
… Niseko was named as the world’s #2 snowiest resort in December 2007 with annual average snow fall of 595 inches (15.11 m) First place went to the Mt. Baker Ski Area in Washington State with 641 inches (16,300 mm). …
Though still very undeveloped, Niseko has been discovered. Property values are going up.
… I shouldn’t have been surprised that the girl at the desk had lived in the ski resort of Banff, Canada and had worked at my favourite restaurant. (Coyote Deli)
