    In this snowboard video we attempt to hike Mt Yotei, which is one of the most iconic mountains in Japan. We attempted this hike last year but failed at reaching the summit with our snowboards. This time around we're hiking the volcano with snow shoes and getting an early start, so hopefully we can reach the summit. If we can manage to summit the mountain we'll have one of the most incredible rides down snowboarding through powder and pillows. If you have any questions about snowboarding in Japan you can leave them in the comments. Thanks for watching!
