    Climbing up Tokachi-dake for my taste a bit too monoton as there are just grey rocks, stones and sand most of the trail; the descent from Biei-dake was much more interesting; the part between the two mountains was quite ...

    This part is also called the Ohatidaira circuit. You can walk around this big caldera. I did it counterclockwise. Just before the path to Hokuchin-dake there was a steep snow slope so I needed to kick my way up. I did ...

    Start in Sounkyo onsen with gondola and chairlift. The climb to Kuro-dake is very popular so it is well maintained and has lots of wooden steps. Now it was difficult due to lots of snow on the track. Once up Kuro-dake it...

    The trail was straightforward but the wind gets stronger as you go higher. It gets so strong near the top, combing with near white-out condition and slippery slope, making it dangerous to pursue further. -CL 16/10/2019
