Mt.Kurodake snow　report
Day by day snow is melting .
Some part of the mountain road appeared, but it has still much snow .
There is a large space beneath snow as more snow melt, you may fall and sustain serious injuries.
Please watch your steps!

“Kumonotaira is covered with snow like snow field.
When you walk in the foggy conditions, keep your mind not to become lost!

Yesterday I turned on the heater without hesitation, it snowed on the mountains as I thought.
After the weather was getting better,
I drove the road to “Kougen onsen” that was opened yesterday, and saw how “Mt.Midori-dake” was.

Depends on the area I could see the patches of thin ice, the frost olumns.
I feel early spring!
As usual year the trecking course has a lot of snow,
I only recommend th
e mountaineers who can read the map.


I took this photos where is from the 1st flower garden (Diichi hanabatake) to summer road.
Here I set up the map and compass ,and walked straight, and finally found the garage place of “Eiko-sawa”.
If you don’t understand the above sentence, it’s safely not to go.
Under the “Miharasi-dai” has still snow, and the trees are fallen down.
You need to find the route.

On the ridge it snowed.
Wild flowers bloomed later than the average year.
Arcterica nana and Arctous Alpina bloom some place.
Rhondodendron aureum that bloomed finally were hurt by snow and ice,
it will take more time to see the flowers.
I have walked in the “Daisetu-zan “ for 20 years.
I watched the wall of snow for the first time.
Please look the photo.
Walking “Itagaki shindou” after turning the junction ,on the bottom of the snow field, I I found more than 3meters height snow wall!
I used the snow axe to make the road, and went through there.
When you walk through the snow field from the “Hakuun hutte”
Please keep your mind the dander to fall in foggy conditions.
The manager of “Hakuun hutte” will come around June 20th.

In Aizankei the bridge of ”Izuminosawa” is bend with the lord of the snow.
You can cross the bridge, please watch your steps!

And the course to junction of “Sanju- sanmagari” has still snow and many fallen
Trees.
And also the course to “Numanotaira” has much snow.
The danger of becoming lost is increasing.
Have a relax and realistic climbing plan , please.

Mt. Krodake snow report.

The famous hiking spot in Sounkyou “Momiji-dani”
Day by day spring is in the air around here.
Here in “Momiji-dani”,many flowers are blooming gradually .
