Happo-one / △40cm / Snowy2019.Dec.20
On the way up the first gondola in the morning, the snow began to dance from the middle of the white birch slopes, and finally descended from the middle of the Central Course. Following the day before yesterday ,yesterday, the 3 ski slopes that could run were still uncompressed. A little damp fresh snow was riding about 5cm along the hard Kurohishi second quad (photo).

I went to the top of the ski area in Grat Quad, which began to move on Dec, 19 for sightseeing and mountaineering. In front of Happoikesanso, a professional snowboarder who participated in a backcountry workshop hosted by a guide in Hakuba Village made preparations and headed for the Happo-One Nature Research Road.

In this workshop, avalanche rescue training was conducted using beacons and sondes. Some participants also participated in FWQ Freeride Hakuba 3 * 2020 held next month. The organizer said, “I would like to connect this influential professional to raising safety in the backcountry.”

In addition, due to lack of snow, the Kuroishi slope side at the top of the Alpine Quad is closed. Advanced players carefully controlled the speed of the Usagidaira slope where deep and hard bumps stick, and beginners to intermediate players slipped while struggling.The deep side of the north side from the middle to the end continued, and the south side was a slightly shallower side.
