Pon Kurodake

These photos were taken at Pon Kurodake.
Mt. Hokuchindake’s Hakucho no Sekkei (swan-shaped snowy gorge) is becoming increasingly distinct.
Although the flowers are delightful, the scenery on fine days like today is so magnificent, it doesn’t seem real; it’s almost like looking at a photograph.
Blooming flowers in the area include Diapensia lapponica subsp. Obovata, Loiseleuria procumbens,
Potentilla miyabei, and Phyllodoce caerulea.
