WHERE TO SKI IN 2018 - SO MANY CHOICES !

These days picking the snow at a ski resort is somewhat of a hit and miss affair. even the most reliable of destinations can have an off season. Yet somehow we have managed to nail it year after year with our peak being the week we were at Nozawa Onsen two years ago when it officially had the most snow of any resort in the world.

So how do we do it ? Basically its months of studying historical weather charts, trolling through snow reports, detailed statistical anlaysis of more than a 100 variables and a review of the entrails of a dozen chickens. In other words we get together, have a coffee and go "what about ....insert name of resort.....then ?"
