The snow on the road that fell the other day melted and a little snow only left around near the road.
But from today November started.
Rough weather will fall snow!
Be careful!
The photo is Scirrus vulgaris orientis.
He ignored me,
We hope that he eats much and survive this winter.
It has been cold day.How about going to see Scirrus vulgaris orientis?
(Brown bears have not hibernate yet, be careful.

The other days snow fell.
Momijidani walking course is under the snow perfectly.
You cannot walk with sneakers.
(Depends on places there is 20cm snow deep.
In the early morning snow might froze)
Moreover the course is difficult to find.
As this photos shows, small avalanche occurred.
If you know this course very well, you can go there.
Now the condition is unstable.
We do not recommend you to go Momijidani.

I met “Sciurus volgaris orientis” “Squirrel “
He was eating meal.
He got walnuts.
At this time of year animals that hibernate are busy to get winter food.
This year hardy kiwi and acorn and wild vine grow poor.
They are essential food for brown bears.
If brown bears can’t get food, they might come to village.
Be careful when you go to the woods.

These photos show today’s view from the fifth station of Mt,Kurodake.
It is clear and sunny.
Blue sky and mountains covered with white snow are so beautiful.
The other day there was distress accident at Mt.Asahidake.
Mountainous area is perfect winter.
In this situations almost every day many people visit and say “I’d like to climb Mt.Kurodake.”
They don’t wear winter clothes.(Including foreigner )

We explain about situations and persuade not to climb.
Now that is impossible to climb mountains.
Even if you prepare winter gear and clothes for winter, it is very dangerous to climb mountains now.
*please understand this situation and do not climb forcefully please

Driving a path through a forest, I met sciurus volgaris orientis after a long time.
He is busy to find nuts and fruits for winter.
Brown bears are busy, too.
Here and there we see their signs, so be careful when you walk in the woods.
