We were also beginners and found Happo-One to be excellent. There are different slopes (red run) for the more experienced at Happo-One as well. The hotel provides drop-off and pick-up to & from Happo-One. They also get your skis and ski boots ready everyday as you have your breakfast, and similarly, come out to help keep your skis & boots when you return from a day of skiing. The staff at La Neige Higashikan are THE BEST!! We took ski lessons from the Evergreen International Ski School which is conveniently located at the base of Happo-One. We were very happy with our instructor.
