A recent period of high pressure in Hakuba yielded conditions that were pretty much perfect. Sunny and clear, good snow, and reasonable stability. It has been really good to ski all the different alpine zones that Happo-One has to offer.

Zach Paley has taken some beautiful photos that capture how good the skiing has been recently.
