Mt. Kurodake’s northeastern face

These day’s high temperature made snow melted quickly.
From before 9th station sign to the top there is no snow.
(only one place has 5m long snow, but it will be gone in a few days.)
From 7th station to 8th station there are long and wide snow gorge.
The temperature is increasing.
But morning and evening snow is getting hard.
There is still danger of falling and slipping .
If you are not used to walking on the snow, you need small crampons.
Anyway pay attention when you walk.

Passing by 8th station some alpine flowers start blooming.
Especially Weigela middendorffiana bloom in community

But suddenly the temperature rised.
At once alpine flower bloomed.
After this depending on weather flower is going to finish blooming.
But we can see many buds.
If you want to watch flowers, please come and see soon as possible.
  • Climbing to the peak in sneakers or other such shoes is risky.
