The first snow of the season fell throughout the Omote Daisetsu area after 1:00 p.m. today.
This year in Daisetsu was marked by the early blooming of alpine plants in June due to warm temperatures, the early ending of that blooming, the early arrival of the fall foliage season in August due to cool temperatures, and now an early snowfall.
