Iiyama Ridge
Jerry Michal skis one of the most aesthetic lines in Nozawa Onsen, the Iiyama Ridge. A prominent sub-ridge that branches from the main ‘dream traverse’, the Iiyama Ridge has this perfectly framed open powder field. Behind we can see the regional centre of Iiyama, farmland buried by deep snow and the Chikuma River. The Chikuma River is the longest river in Japan and popular for whitewater rafting during the tropical summers. This is a personal favourite.
