Growing more colorful every day

I had feared that coloring along the Kogen-numa course would be affected by the period of snow we had, but it turns out I needn’t worry. The leaves are gorgeous.
Takimi-numa (shown in the photos), Midori-numa, Shikibu-numa, and Kogen-numa are particularly beautiful.
However, the leaves were covered with snow once, so it is possible they will begin dropping earlier than usual. It might be a good idea to tour the ponds soon.
