REPORT

The winter weather system that delivered a decent amount of fresh snow from 2/26 (Mon.) to 2/27 (Tues.) had moved on, and it was a sunny morning with thing cloud coverage. I ran into a group of three snowboarders from Aichi and Tokyo who told me they knew of Snownavi. One of the men (pictured, center) had a Goryu Night Model snowboard from THE DAY.HAKUBA, and told me, “I’m appreciative of the affordable price. I bought it to give it a try and it’s been very fun to ride, and I’ve taken a liking to it.”

Both the groomed Davos East and Davos West courses (pictured), located in the southeast-facing Omote Davos area, had fantastic, moderately firm powder snow conditions! My edges gripped well and my skis slid smoothly, and I enjoyed skiing the super wide slopes freely. It was a weekday morning with few people around, and I had to smile when I saw my tracks in the snow while riding the Beat Lift (724m) back up.

Going straight down from the Beat Lift takes you to the Oku Davos area, while skiing down the Omote Davos Panorama Course (pictured) takes you to the fully-open, gentle Ura Davos Slope. The Omote Davos Panorama, Ura Davos Heart-no-mori, and Ura Davos Skyline courses were all groomed with moderately firm powder snow bases.

Schneider’s Panorama, Panorama Beginner, and Hannes C had similar powder snow conditions, where the firmness of the groomed surfaces was just right for comfortable skiing. In other news, a cosplay event will be held at Shinshu Sugadaira Kogen Pine Beak Ski Resort on 3/3 (Sun.).
