The past few days were very windy in Sounkyo.
However pleasant weather has finally returned today. The temperature outside the center is 22℃, which is a new spring high.
I walked into Momijidani Valley for the first time in about two weeks and found that snow remains in three areas.
Although the distances to be crossed are short, caution should be exercised when walking on the snow due to the danger of slipping and falling.
Having said that, I should mention that many flowers are blooming and the birds are singing. It’s a lovely time of the year.
If you come to Sounkyo, I highly recommend a visit to Momijidani Valley, Sounkyo’s very popular spot for walking.
