Sarah Lapardin
Big thank you guys. It was honestly so nice connecting with you all - from late-night music jam sessions and onsen talks to everyone's snowboarding tips. You're all so inspiring, and it's really special to be reminded how much love and kindness exists outside our little bubble back home. Thank you so much for all the messages in the notebook - I truly appreciate every one of them, and I'm hoping the whole book will be filled by the end of my travels. Huge shout-out to Henry and Noah for the idea and motivation that made this whole experience possible and gave us the chance to meet and connect like this. If anyone ever comes to Australia, please hit me up - I'd love to return the hospitality.

Chris B.
Hey guys, I just wanted to let you know I made it safely to Switzerland. Thank you for making this past week so special. After months of solo traveling, I was feeling pretty burned out - meeting lots of people but missing real, deep connections. You reminded me why I love connecting with strangers and gave me more inspiration and energy for my visions than I could have imagined. I'll carry that week in my heart me forever. Also special thanks to everyone that wrote a message in my journal. I cried so hard on the plane.
15:58
Emil Viljanen / Hamish
Thank you guys for the best time! I'm super grateful that I've gotten to know all of you. Thank you to each and every one of you for making this past week the absolute best week of my life. You have all inspired me so much.

Thanks for all the love.
Every group is different, but most weeks follow a simple rhythm: ride, eat, reset, and make space for the people around you.
Settle in, meet the group, sort gear, and get a clear plan for the first day on snow.
Shared mornings keep the week easy: coffee, breakfast, snow checks, and a simple plan before heading out.
Ride with people at a compatible level, with optional support from the Mountain Memories ski school network.
Some days stay full, some slow down. Expect optional hot springs, food stops, recovery, and time at the lodge.
Dinner brings everyone back together before a relaxed evening, a town plan, or an early night for the next storm.
This is an example rhythm, not a fixed schedule. Weather, snow, group energy, and local conditions shape the week.
The people behind Mountain Memories host the week, shape the group energy, and keep the experience personal from first message to final dinner.
See where the week unfolds, from slow mornings to shared dinners.
Location
A quiet mountain base close to Rusutsu Resort, with easy access from New Chitose Airport.
Around 5 minutes from Rusutsu Resort and about 90 minutes from New Chitose Airport.
