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

 8 Sep 2014 · [Lodge News](https://staging.morinolodge.com/blog/lodge-news) · [Video](https://staging.morinolodge.com/blog/video)

 

 

 

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** ](http://hakuba.monster/lodges-chalets/morino-lodge-myoko/)– 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**](http://hakuba.monster/lodges-chalets/morino-lodge-myoko/) 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.
