Hakuba Cortina

Apparently, it falls most snow in Cortina out of all the ski areas in Hakuba. The reason being said that Cortina is closest to the sea and snowfall "sticks" over Cortina. 40-50cm fresh snow overnight is apparently not uncommon and I had to experience this myself during my stay in Cortina.
Cruel rides in fairly steep parts with sparse forest. Cortina offers endless choices to go off-piste, but days when it snows really much during the nights unfortunately attracts the whole of Hakuba Valley, it feels like - which means that waiting in the lift queue becomes long, and the forest is quickly alert. If you hide, the landscape opens up and the possibilities of finding cruel yokes are endless.
Unfortunately, the ride is quite short - but a lovely experience.
