Zao in northeastern Japan is one of Japan's top ski resorts. Along with excellent powder, Zao's mountains are known for their stunning natural scenery. On this program, we focus on people dedicated to sharing the wonders of Zao's harsh yet beautiful winters with others. One is a 91-year-old ski instructor who teaches other seniors. There's also a photographer who has spent decades photographing the area's fantastic snow-covered trees.
