As the temperature rises, a good deal of the snow on the hillsides around Sounkyo Gorge is melting.
However, in the mountains, it remains snow, snow, snow.
The mountain in the photo is Mt. Aibetsu, where winter is still in full force.
The snow is still 420 cm deep at the 7th Station of Mt. Kurodake. This amount surpasses last year’s depth.
Of course everything depends on the weather, but it looks like we can again expect quite a bit of snow to remain this year.
