Mt. Akadake snow Report
Route Ginsendai opened ,hikers can climb “Akadake”direction.
Since this spring it has been cold ,so snow is melting later than average year .
I think there is a lot of remaining snow this year.
Walking from the forest administrative office,
There is remaining snow ,and snow cover the trekking road here and there.
