Hokkaido belongs to the subarctic zone, so we have a lot of snow in winter. Speaking of snow, the snow festival is held in Sapporo and we can enjoy winter sports. On the other hand, trains are often stopped because of snow.
We are going to talk about the snow.
Shoveling Snow
If it snows, shoveling snow is essential, isn’t it? But shoveling snow is hard and troublesome. Let me introduce you to some tips for shoveling snow as easily as possible.
Firstly, doing warm-up exercises properly.
Secondly, you should use not only your arms, but also your legs and hips.
Thirdly, when you remove snow, don’t twist your body.
Finally, you should shovel snow at your own pace.
Non Slip Gravel
Did you see this post?
This post contains anti slipping gravel. In winter, all of the roads in Sapporo freeze over. It’s too dangerous for us to walk there. Every year there are many injured people who slip on the frozen roads.
This post prevents us from slipping on the roads in winter. We can open this post and spread gravel on the roads freely.
Snow Quality
Hokkaido’s charm is the good snow quality. There is a lot of powder snow, which is perfect for skiing, thanks to the low temperature. The National Geographic Traveller, an American magazine, introduced Hokkaido as Best Trips for Amazing Powder Snow 2016.
Hokkaido’s ski slopes are the best locations for people who like skiing. It is most definitely a destination for powder snow lovers.
The Snow Festival
One of the most famous festivals in Sapporo is the snow festival. It is held every February and a lot of people visit to see dynamic and beautiful statues made of snow. Unfortunately, it was not held this year because of covid-19. But it is worth going there once in a lifetime.
