Hakuba over Christmas?

I get a chunk of holiday over Christmas and am considering venturing to Hakuba this year rather than the Alps.

Does anyone have any experience with the snow in Hakuba over Christmas? What can I expect?

Also any other general tips would be appreciated.

Have replied to your PM.

In terms of snow, it really could go either way. Christmas is still early season, so it depends on how much of a base builds up through the autumn. You should have good and consistent snowfall by then, but there may not be enough of a base down by then for everything to be skiable. It's an El Nino year this year which may affect things too.

Chances are, it'll be better than the Alps though!
