Most reliable pow in the world?

It's a variation on a familiar story - man likes shaver so much he buys the company. In this case, Australian, Colin Hackworth liked skiing in Japan so much he bought the mountain. The mountain is on Hokkaido, Japan's northern island, and has, according to Hackworth, the best and most reliable powder snow in the world. For Australians ski holidays in Japan are much cheaper than either Europe or North America and there is no jet-lag.



Is that mountain for sale?

The SnowNews discussion forum had a thread on this in August:

SnowHeadsand Snowheads have also covered a recent story on the political website Crikey which is posing questions about a decision by Australian national airline Qantas to fly skiers to Saporro in Japan, which is near Niseko Hanazono
