The Rebirth of Madarao.
Madarao has been a renowned powder spot in the ski and snowboard community in Japan over the years. Madarao Mountain Ski Resort has over 45 trails, unlimited powder, amazing tree skiing, awesome back country and no lift lines. But the secret is slowly getting out about the 'mada-pow' and inbound tourism is driving a renaissance of the town. We are all still all about the powder though at Madarao!
