Area of Kurodake Ishimuro

Although still small in scale, the Sieversia pentapetala and Phyllodoce caerulea are forming communities near Ishimuro where the snow has melted.
There are still buds on plants in the rear areas, so the season will likely last a little longer. However, the continuing warm temperatures will probably bring an early end to the flowering season.
