YUKI NO SHIMA - 雪の島
YUKI NO SHIMA - 雪の島
or the “Isle of snow”
Two friends, one mini camper van, and the snow-covered roads of Hokkaido...
Embark on a wintery adventure across Japan’s north island and follow these two skiers through tight tree runs as they seek bottomless turns, soft landings and endless bliss in the “snowiest place on earth”.
(Advice: good sound system or headphones required for optimal deep pow experience).
