This works best if your group is about the same skill level. Additional rates or conditions may apply if going off piste beyond the scope of side country.
Overnight Back country options exist for strong skiers. Adventure requires AT/skinning/splitboarding or tele- to the high country from the top lift, and then overnight in a hut.
Skiing Experience
(日本語の解説なき、申し訳ないです!)The family baby carriage had skis, not wheels. On planks since age 2.5. Parents instructed. Skied the Haute route from France to Switzerland pre-college. Craig Kelly (boarder) strong influence in my neighborhood. My first Burton (1983?) was wooden with aluminium fins. Went rifing with Jake Burton once at the US Open. Ned Randall (tele-world champion and Mt. Ranier Guide) taught me how to stand tall and hit mach speed on 3-pins (old style tele-gear) without cratering. Years of resort life experience in Utah and Alaska, Nagano and Niigata.
Teaching / Guiding Experience
PNSIA instructor age 15-20, ski vagabond after that. Heli-ski guide in Valdez and The Chugach Range (AK), North Cascades (WA) and Queenstown (NZ). Fluent in international backcountry and snow-safety practices as well as Japanese language and culture. (二カ国語でレッスンやガイド可)
Other Info
Hucking and adrenaline is all-good, but challenging yet safe, do-able path to the bottom for students or clients is what your wife / family / girlfriends wants for you. Outdoor pursuits / outdoor teaching / mountain life has proven an extremely good medium from which were born a wide range of intercultural experiences. From first turns to first tracks (pow) to Onsen Apres-ski, I will pass along whatever I can. For clients, I have available ski lift ticket hook-up, private onsen etc., available.
