"Great resort for skiers who enjoyed wide intermediate groomed runs. Good selection of restaurants scattered over the mountain. Crowded with local Japanese on weekends. Lift design for getting around the mountain is fairly awkward. Gondola feels like it takes forever. "

The gondola ride is a good 10 minutes and I found it necessary to open the vents to stop from getting too warm, some stayed open by themselves and I stuffed a glove into the ones that wouldn't.
