There are several places on the Mt. Aka – Mt. Kurodake course trail where large gullies and gouges were formed by the recent heavy rain.
While the damage is not enough to block passage, climbers should be cautious when going by them.
There are particularly large gullies in two locations; one is between the Mt. Koizumi junction and Mt. Hakuun junction, and the other is between the Mt. Hokkaidake peak and the bench midway up Mt. Hokkaidake.
