Japan Powder Safari

Deep powder & a unique mountain culture in the land of the rising sun…

Japan is known for its deep low-density powder and perfectly spaced birch forests. The amazing hot-spring network & incredible food also contribute to the uniqueness of this cultural ski experience. Join us and explore this mythical ski paradise as we return to Hokkaido in Jan 2027.

Hokkaido is the Northern island of Japan, SMG will be running four separate trips in January and February 2027. The focus will be on sampling backcountry terrain near the various resorts and road access venues. Our daily excursions will include a mixture of classic open birch forest skiing along with open alpine terrain with possible ski peaks.

Trips with remaining spaces: Jan 23-29, 2027 and Feb 1-7, 2027
