‘’ At last – a really good guide to skiing in Japan ... It’s bright and breezy and generously illustrated with maps and inspirational photography, with sections on culture, history, food (of course), and the vexed question of the confusing signals many Japanese resorts send out about skiing or snowboarding in the backcountry. ’’
‘’ we can't recommend it enough ’’
‘’ it’s not only the best ski guide on Japan ever to have been published, but one of the best ski guides out there, full stop ’’
