{"product_id":"teshio-dake-western-ridge-ski-touring-hokkaido-japan-hokkaidowildsorg-map","title":"Teshio-dake Western Ridge Ski Touring (Hokkaido, Japan)","description":"Teshio-dake (天塩岳, 1558m) is northern Hokkaido's highest mainland peak, with fantastic views south to the Daisetsuzan Range. In winter, most backcountry skiers approach from the east for a long daytrip. However, with a gorgeous hut on the western side of the mountain, Teshio-dake makes for an excellent overnight or multi-day destination. Here, we outline a winter variation on the classic New Route summer hiking trail (新道) from the Teshiodake Hutte to the summit via the emergency huts on the western ridge. Snow conditions can be variable in the area, with high winds often buffeting the upper slopes, but pick your aspect and the skiing can be great.\r\n\r\nSee the full route overview on Hokkaido Wilds: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hokkaidowilds.org\/ski-touring\/teshio-dake-western-ridge\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehttps:\/\/hokkaidowilds.org\/ski-touring\/teshio-dake-western-ridge\u003c\/a\u003e","brand":"HokkaidoWilds.org","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36399455895708,"sku":"1108659","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0441\/7850\/5884\/files\/hokkaidowilds-org-teshio-dake-western-ridge-ski-touring-hokkaido-japan-digital-map-35928285216924.jpg?v=1701990658","url":"https:\/\/store.avenza.com\/products\/teshio-dake-western-ridge-ski-touring-hokkaido-japan-hokkaidowildsorg-map","provider":"Avenza Maps","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
