    Myoko Suginohara Lift System

    Four high-speed quad chairs and two gondolas efficiently serve the resort's expansive vertical terrain. The lift system's design minimises congestion while maximizing access to diverse terrain zones. The upper mountain lifts access advanced terrain and off-piste areas, while lower mountain facilities focus on progression. Unique to Suginohara is the length of runs from each lift, allowing extended descents before requiring another lift ride.
