Notice

The other day I reported that the forest road to Mt. Niseikaushuppe was closed. However, as of now the road’s sign is up and the road is open.
Additionally, the Kurodake Ishimuro caretaker will be stationed there from the 20th, and the caretaker of the Mt Hakuun hut will be stationed from the 21st.
The Kogen Onsen-numa route is scheduled to be opened on the 20th (the forest road opened on the 10th), and the Ginsendai route is scheduled to be opened on the 26th.
The weather at Sounkyo has been poor recently and I have not been able to go up into the mountains. Consequently, I have been unable to post any new reports. I ask for your patience,
though, as I hope to post new reports in the coming days.
