Sky Shishiku
Hakusan City, Ishikawa Prefecture
スカイ獅子吼スキー場 石川県白山市
Sky Shishiku was a ski area that used to be Tsurugi Town, now the northern part of Hakusan City in Ishikawa Prefecture. There was skiing in this location before any ski lifts, and it was known as Choei Tsurugi. When the first ski lift opened, it was known as Shishiku Kogen, and it became popular through the 1960s. As more ski areas opened nearby, this ski area underwent various changes, including a final name change to Sky Shishiku. The ski area was scaled down a few times before eventually closing in 2016. The gondola still operates outside of the winter season.
