Hokkaido Unplugged
The Hokkaido Unplugged Tour from Black Diamond Tours is a backcountry powder tour of a lifetime! If you're happy to earn your turns and you're looking for the ultimate adventure and most action packed week, this is the trip for you.
You've got the option of joining the scheduled date group tour or if you have your own group, you can
request a customised private backcountry trip.
Why depend on lifts when the best untouched powder to be had is just a hike away? Skin up and get ready for the Hokkaido Unplugged! Starting in the Niseko area with legendary lines on Mt. Yotei and Shiribetsudake, this trip is not for the lazy resort goers. You'll make a brief stopover in Sapporo to ski some of the more less-known backcountry terrain, as well as giving you an opportunity to enjoy sights, sounds, culture and culinary delights in the world’s snowiest major city.
You'll then head out to Central Hokkaido to explore some of the more quieter but exciting powder destinations. As with all BDT trips, there are lots of options at each area visited and the plan will be adjusted to weather conditions to make sure we stay deep in the good stuff all week long.
Ski the deepest snow of your life |
...untracked all the way.. |
...you'll cream your thermals! |
