Hello to all fellow CSers.
I have some questions which I tried searching on CS but after reading through all the threads, can find no firm answer.
It's the end of the year again. And I am seriously planning to go for a Self-drive holiday to Hokkaido from around 16th Dec till 22nd Dec.
It's going to be a family holiday 7 person in hopefully a big Toyota multi-seater.
And I intend to drive to travel to Sapporo, Otaru (both in the south-west), Furano (central), Asahikawa (Cenral-North), and any other places suggested.
My questions are:
Apologies, ladies and gentlemen, for my long-winded questions.
I am a little confused now and I certainly need some good advice.
Thank you all in advance!

My questions are:
- Does it snow heavy from mid-December onwards? And does it ice up the roads?
- Any of you kind CSers have driven before in the snowy, icy roads of Hokkaido in any types of self-drive vehicles? What were your experiences?
- In Winter, besides Sapporo, Otaru, Furano, Biei, Asahikawa, are there any drive-worthy places to visit for the special wintery scene?
- We are not skiing people but who knows... maybe if it is good we may consider one day to skii.
Apologies, ladies and gentlemen, for my long-winded questions.
