A perfect ski area for learners and experienced skiers. The runs are long and wide with not the crowds. There is also a terrain park which can be a lot of fun. The main black run is wide and groomed. Down near the gondola station are a few great warm spots for hot chocolate or a curry.

Whilst the Yakebitaiyama area can be a bit more busy than other areas on the mountain it has nice wide/fast runs. We had lots of groomed powder whilst we were there.
