“Myoko……..it`s kind of a magical place”

The leaves are starting to change color, the night-time air is getting cool…….it must be September.  Which means, it`s time to let our daydreams drift from beaches & sun to backcountry lines & deep powder turns…..the season is less than 3 months away after all. 

And if you like your powder extra deep, there are few places as consistently so as Myoko Kogen – the relatively undiscovered powder mecca just 1 & 1/2 hours North-West of Hakuba (& only 3 hours from Tokyo).  

Myoko's got a great thing going on & we've just got ourselves a lodge there. Myoko Morino Lodge is currently under some big renovations, so more to come on that soon.

In the meantime, get your powder fantasy fix by watching these videos that capture the Myoko thing nicely.
