My Impressions
I didn't know this mountain very well but it is a well known place and has been designated as one of the 100 Famous Mountains of Japan. It is the smallest mountain in the Northern Alps, so I had not taken much of an interest in it until I decided to climb it. It was well worth the climb. If you are beginner and want to climb the Northern Alps of Japan, this mountain would be a good choice to start with. And if you go there you should stay at Nakanoyu Hotel. I was impressed with their good service and low prices.
As for the climb itself, there's not much to mention. The course was shorter and easier than other mountains in the Northern Alps, but I couldn't reach the summit due to white-out. But, it’s OK. Because I wanted to stay at the hotel again. One last thing I want to say is that this mountain is so beautiful in snow, and it's also very easy to climb, so I'll definitely return in the future.

I started climbing at early morning.
It seems to be a nice day, so far!
Fresh snow that just came down yesterday.
It was a really peaceful and beautiful place. I loved it!
What animal made this?!?! It's definitely not a deer... I have no idea.
So calm and peaceful. There was no one around.
That's the summit that I am aiming for.
The hotel I stayed at yesterday prepared this for my climb, because I couldn't take the breakfast in the hotel. It was so nice of them and it was delicious. Guess what the red things are on the left.
Suddenly, the weather condition changed, so I gave up to summit. Oh well.
When I reached Nakanoyu hotel, the sun came back out.
