Membership benefits include access to shared amenities, such as using the half pipe,
high-speed WiFi in the log house, drying and equipment workshop, sauna, etc. The rates do not include consumables, such as fuel, beverages, food, etc.
Limited to the first 4 people, our all-inclusive program is the 10X Package--$1,000/adult is a hosted service that includes 10 days of on-piste and the lift tickets for each day. Where we go depends on the weather, but we'll try to get you to at least 8 different ski areas. (In the Spring, we can expand that to central Japan for slightly more.) After that, you'll know where to go without a host and can find the best snow when and where you like.
Below are a sample pictures of a few of the rooms, both Japanese style with futons and Western with a bed.
