Disclaimer: The Evergreen Outdoor Center does not claim that our reports are a 100% accurate forecast of the snow stablity in the Hakuba area, nor should these reports influence your decisions regarding safe backcountry travel.There is no way that anyone can forecast the weather and snow stability 100% accurately across as broad a mountain range such as the Hakuba valley. As these two great phenomenon are forces of nature and constantly changing it is up to YOU, the mountain enthusiast, to make route decisions and judge snow stability in the area that you are traveling. The weather reporters and snow stability forecasters at Evergreen are professional and passionate about what they do and make it their goal to provide the most accurate accounts of the conditions in the Hakuba Valley, but this is no substitute for undergoing proper avalanche skills training.

Kamoshika in the wild Hakuba

Sometimes our off-piste and backcountry tours encounter the local wildlife, like this kamoshika mom and little one checking us out yesterday.

Back Country tour with Bill Glude and Kevin Kung

Our crew in front of the magical little Reflet restaurant and bakery. This beautiful and cozy place looms out of the snowy trail down the mountain, alongside a lightly-traveled ski run, and beckons travelers with a warm heater, wonderful little creme patisserie cakes, real hot chocolate drinks, and generous hospitality. A must-stop!
