PowPowPow!




It's been a busy couple a weeks since our last post as Niseko is ramping up for peak season. Guests have been renting vans and chasing the best snow to Kiroro and Kokusai as well as exploring the backcountry with Black Diamond Tours. JS from BD Tours also ran a two day certified avalanche course (AST-1) which was very popular, this course will be running throughout the winter. There was a lunar eclipse, which some of didn't fully appreciate at the time as we put it down to a cloud and concentrated on the snow! The Lodge had a traditional Christmas dinner on the 24th and 25th, the restaurant was full to bursting on both nights with guests and locals. The barbeque cooked beer turkey was a welcome taste of home which was complemented by barbeque orange chicken. Santa dropped off a late present on the evening of the 25th in the form of the biggest dump of the season so far. Some people were even saying that the snow was too dee, we will hopefully be posting some videos of the powdery goodness soon!
