My favorite ski area is in Hokkaido,
Niseko hirafu, Rusutsu, Sapporo kokusai, and so on.
The snow is light, low humidity (or dry-snow?),
so it has a nice grip,
I mean easy to ski carving.
Also it's easy to control skiing in back country,
although skiing in deep snow normally tends to be difficult situation.
I think the snow condition makes every-skier love it more.
I love skiing in Hokkaido!
