Fun for all ages at Kutchan Town's annual Yukitopia Snow Festival.

The Yukitopia Snow Festival was an absolute blast last weekend for event-goers who joined in the festivities at this annual, vibrant, local winter celebration.

Highlights of the two day event included Ninja Run on the Water, as well as the famous Glide! Across the Water! event. The first event had partipants balancing on planks to cross the water while Glide! Across the Water! required participants to ski or snowboard across! GoSnow's Ninja Kid also took part and glided in style.
