Given the recent snowfall, there is some concern about conditions in the mountains. The photographs show the northeastern face of Mt. Kurodake as seen from the Sounkyo Picnic Site.
The photo on the left was taken today, while that on the right was taken on May 25 of last year.
Although no definitive conclusions can be drawn due to differences in lighting and angle, it seems that conditions now are not so different from what they were last year.
As I did last year, I plan to enter the mountains early in June to check conditions.
