Due to the snow that fell continuously from yesterday, the trail around Mt. Aka’s peak can be difficult to find in some areas, and therefore climbers will need to be fully prepared for winter conditions from now on.
Mt. Aka course snow report:
Daisan Sekkei: Snow remains all the way down to the lower area but is not an obstacle to walking.
Daiyon Sekkei: The lower area is muddy and very slippery. Patches of snow are found in the middle and upper areas, and some places are frozen.
Mt. Aka peak: The entire peak is completely covered with between 2 and 5 cm of snow. The trail can be hard to find in some areas.
