Great work Benk! We have done basically the same trip twice and I know those logistics are not easy to arrange. Or maybe you speak Japanese. And it's always a gamble to plan ahead to fly halfway around the world and hope for good conditions. Though Hokkaido is about as safe a bet as there is. In about 25 ski days we've had about 0.5 bluebird days, but all 25 were waist-deep fluff.
Kamihoro is the sweet spot - Ryonkaku is dumpy and no meal plan at Hakuginsu. Did you find Fukiage onsen while in Tokachi?

Awesome! Thanks for sharing. Everyone should go to Japan at least once!
I'll second what noflyzone said. Stayed at Tokachidake Ryounkaku two years ago. The food was not good, which is really hard to mess up in Hokkaido.
For anyone planning the Niseko/Tokachidake combo, check out rental car rate from BDL to get to TD and back. 4WD wagon was pretty affordable when we did it. Much easier than bus transit IMO.
