My friends and I had the pleasure of skiing with Jack, one of Pete's guides, during our visit to Asahidake. He took us all over the mountain showing us terrain we would not have otherwise come across. Great guide and fun guy to spend the day with. Would definitely recommend if you as skiing in the area! Thanks for a great day.

We had a wonderful experience with Pete and would hire him again if we return! He worked with us to put together a reasonably priced package for multiple days of backcountry at Tokachidake and Shiribetsu and sidecountry exploration of the Furano and Rusutsu resorts. Unfortunately we didn't have the Japow of our dreams but Pete found the best snow to be had! He was very knowledgeable in terms of avalanche risk, best aspects and lesser known stashes. We felt safe and had a much better experience for having someone local show us where to go and which lines to take or avoid. He also gave us some great restaurant, bar and onsen recommendations. Arigato Pete!
