"We did a guided backcountry day with Joey, and it was amazing. Honestly, we wished we’d scheduled one for every day we were skiing in Niseko! He was very easygoing and encouraging, and made sure everyone in the group was having a good time. His guidance was crucial for helping us find the best hidden powder stashes and understanding the gate system—it seemed like a whole different mountain after he showed us around. Joey felt like one of our crew by the end of the day."
“Juan Cruz and Victor took a group of us friends/colleagues for a touring day up Shiribetsu and it was the best day so far this season!! It was one of our members first time touring and they were patient with us all, funny, and made it a great and memorable time. Couldn’t recommend these two more”
"Great team and service. Ben was awesome sorting us with equipment and getting us organised. Elliot did an excellent job guiding us and ensuring a great day back country skiing. He ensured all members of our group's needs were met based on our goals and skills. Nice work team! We appreciated the service."
