It has been cold.
In the early morning the temperature is minus degrees.
It’s freezing.
This year’s first snow was later than the average year.
(last year October 5th, this year October 29th)
After first snow it snows lightly, and isn’t covered with snow.

Today we saw beautiful hoarfrost in the Sounkyo gorge.
Now snow is melting, it is not enough to ski, make a snowman.
Last year we had amount 209cm snow!!
This year the amount of snow will less than normal year in November.

~To foreign people who want climbing to mountains~
We don’t recommend to go climbing in winter season.
Because it is very dangerous.
When it is storm, you will miss the trail and might be frozen to death.
