Head along Route 29 towards Tottori, turn onto Prefectural Road 48 at Deai Bridge just before Tokura Pass, and the base is about five minutes on. The Furikozawa slope at the back pitches to 38 degrees and is for experts. The area is run together with Wakasugi Kogen Oya in Yabu, and the two share a season pass.

When it falls, and how winters differ

Is Western Japan Snowier Than It Looks? Our Model Against the Weather StationsWestern Japan's ski areas look thin in our data — a median of 125 cm against a national 249 cm. Against 16 Japan Meteorological Agency stations, the model we use returns 44% of what the ground records there. The region is far snowier than our own numbers say.
