I started off a little early this morning, but when I arrived at a small parking space at Yadate-ishi trailhead around 7:30, mine was the fifth car. |
There is a loop trail, but unfortunately the section between the peak and Nishiki-daki falls has been closed since this May when there was a fatal accident due to the bad trail condition. |
The trail was though forests and there was no view until I came up to the peak. |
But I found several wildflowers. |
|
The temperature was higher than I had expected. |
|
|
There came fogs from time to time. |
This device was a rainfall meter, according to the explanation board. |
Around 9:00 I arrived at the official peak of Mt. Hinata, where there is a stone marker of Japanese GS, but there is no view at this spot. |
The name-board of Mt. Hinata was a couple of minutes away from the official peak, and this place commands a fine one-eighty open view. |
This peak is famous for its beach-like sand surface, but it didn't look so nice under the cloudy sky. 
|
I found a cluster of takane-biranji, one of the two main targets on this hike. ^^) |
|
The other side of the peak was cut sharply to the cliff. |
There was a small stone monument dedicate to a local daimyojin god. |
|
|
The fogs on the peak were constantly flowing. 
|
I could see Mt. Yatsugatake to the east when fogs were cleared. As I had a plan to hike Mt. Nykasa today, I didn't take a break and continued to walking back to the trailhead. |

When I came back to the parking space around 10:15, the space was full with more than 20 cars. |
I then walked towards Nishiki-daki. |

I arrived at a small gazebo at Nishiki-daki trailhead around 11:00. |
The board explains the trail to the peak was closed. |
But there was a short trail to the fall before the blockade. |
|
I found the other target of this hike, shirahigeso near the fall. |
|
|
A beautiful fall. |
I resumed walking back to the parking space. |
|

|
And arrived at the parking space around 11:45. My plan was to hike Mt. Nyukasa in the afternoon, to look for other wildflowers. The report will be posted soon. |
