What is Snoedge?

01

Why A Ski Club?

We are a 501(c)(7) non-profit ski club dedicated to supporting the local snow communities that shaped us as skiers and snowboarders. Our mission is to preserve and celebrate mountain culture worldwide — supporting local businesses directly, partnering with mountain communities ethically, and resisting the “one-size-fits-all” ski-trip model. We welcome skiers and riders from anywhere around the world — whether joining for one unforgettable adventure or returning year after year.

02

Ethical International Destination Ski Trips

SNØedge was born from a group of U.S.-based skiers and snowboarders with diverse international roots, united by five seasons of shared winter adventures across the world. We recognize the incredible impact of U.S. mega-ski passes in making destination trips more accessible and in connecting snow lovers across continents. But we also see the cost: the beloved home mountains prospering from global attention, while local communities struggle against rapid, profit- and greed- driven international investment that erodes cultural heritage and their way of life with it's cookie-cutter development.

03

Our Commitment

Every international trip we organize is led by locals — people who live the culture, speak the language, and open doors to hidden places commercial operators overlook or never reach. We blend mega-pass destinations with nearby independent resorts, local festivals, family-owned lodges, and authentic cultural experiences, ensuring that the mountains we love remain vibrant for the people who call them home. Join us. Together, let’s explore the world’s snow destinations the way they were meant to be experienced: authentically, responsibly, and in community with the people who make each mountain unique.

Volunteer Based Trip Leaders Around The Globe

Our paid and non-paid volunteer local leaders welcome you into their home turf. They speak the local language as natives and English with full fluency, ensuring smooth, authentic connection wherever you go.

Explore the ski destinations

Our themed trips are crafted by local leaders who know their mountains, their neighbors, and their culture by heart. Their lived knowledge makes our experiences unique and impossible to replicate. We are grateful for their hospitality and the heart they bring to our community.

We travel off season, too!

Adventure awaits in every season. Let’s experience culture, nature, and the changing months together — not just snow, but blossoms, festivals, and the best outdoor moments each season brings.

Club Member Reviews

"Tomoko handled all the logistics seamlessly—from transportation to hotel choices—so I could just enjoy the trip. She knew all the best secret spots on and off the mountain, and the conditions were fantastic. The cat skiing in Myoko was an unforgettable highlight, and the fire festival in Nozawaonsen was a truly unique experience that she had reserved nearly a year in advance. If you want a trip where every detail is taken care of and you get access to experiences you couldn't arrange on your own, I highly recommend it."

"I've never seen so much fresh powder in my life! It just wouldn't stop snowing! Not only was the snow amazing, but the food, the culture, and the group I was with made the trip top-notch. I highly recommend it and am looking forward to going again!"Kosta, Feb 2025 Yuzawa powder chase trip"

"The best ski trip I’ve ever taken. Tomoko truly knows Japan’s mountains and culture — every detail was perfectly planned. I would have never had the same experience had I done this on my own. She showed us the real Japan, and I’d go again in a heartbeat."
