Thank you very much for your continued patronage of Madarao Kogen Ski Resort.

Recently, we have observed individuals climbing the slopes and skiing before the official start of operations.

Please be advised that before opening hours, slope grooming and maintenance work is being carried out using snow grooming machines and other equipment. As this poses a serious risk of accidents, all uphill travel and skiing associated with uphill travel before opening hours are strictly prohibited throughout the entire Madarao Kogen Ski Resort.

In addition, any uphill travel or skiing involving uphill access on closed
courses or courses accessible via suspended lift operations after opening hours
is also strictly prohibited.

Should such actions be observed in the future, the individuals involved may be denied access to the ski resort in the future. We appreciate your understanding in advance.

We kindly ask for your cooperation and understanding to ensure the safe operation of the ski resort.

Sincerely,
