Skiing in April? That's right, April is the ski season in Tsukiyama!

On April 10 (Sun.), the long-awaited opening of Tsukiyama ski resort for skiers and snowboarders will arrive. There are several ski resorts in Japan that can be enjoyed in the summer, but Tsukiyama ski resort's season is from April to July. When the snowfall has subsided and the weather has warmed up, the snow is dug up and the Gassan Ski Area finally opens!

Since it is summer skiing, many skiers wear light clothing, and there are even a few who are skiing in short sleeves! It is natural snow, so you will definitely get wet if you fall down. Snow wear is recommended.
Advanced skiers showed up.
Everyone looks like they are having fun!
