Worried about global warming? Mt Yokote is Japan’s highest ski mountain! The summit is 2,306 meters high and the base is 1,702 meters, giving it a total vertical of 604 meters. Certainly, the views from 2300+ meters are excellent, on a clear day. Yokote is located in a Shiga Kogen that is made up of 18 ski mountains so while 604 meters of vertical may not be a lot, the area has an enormous number of other mountain to ski!
