Mt. Kurodake’s northeastern face

The photo is Mt.Kurodake in Daisetuzan mountains range.
It was taken at the 5th station observation deck.
Mt,Kurodake has still much snow.

Kurodake pair lift is now under construction for summer.
We don’t know how much snow is there.
There was 330cm snow deep on end of April.That is more 60cm than last year.
The temperature is not going up.
So we think there is still much snow.
