I drove a narrow forest road and parked at the starting point of Yokokura forest road around 9:45. There was a small space that a few cars can park.
|
I walked back a couple of minutes and turn at this branch.
|
The first section was a paved road, but some spots were covered with thin running water and a little slippery.
|
After a 30 minute walk, I came to the end of the paved road, where a small parking space was.
|
The trail was along a beautiful stream.
|
The last section below the ridge was a little steep.
|
When I came near to the ridge, colored leaves appeared.
|
I arrived at Unotawa, or cormorant's marsh, around 11:20. The place once said to be a marsh, but it is now dry up, but there weren't any trees growing yet.
|
After taking pictures, I continued to walk toward Ohmochi-yama-no-kata, or the shoulder of Mt. Ohmochi. The autumn colors were stunning along the trail.
|
After a ten-minute moderate climb, I came to a spot where I could have a nice command toward northeast.
|
I arrived at Ohmochi-yama-no-kata at 12:07, and turned left towards the peak of Mt. Ohmochi.
|
I could see the peak of the Mt. Fuji through trees on the way.
|
The peak was just several minute walk. Mt. Fuji couldn't be seen from this peak because of the small peak in front of this peak.
|
I turned around and walked back toward the kata and Tsumasaka toge.
|
The color leaves around 1000m were at their best.
|
13:07 I arrived at Tsumasaka toge.
|
I took a picture of Mt. Buko and turned right to the parking space.
|
The trail was very well maintained.
|
And came out at this point to a forest road.
|
I passed a huge rock and in 20 minutes, I came down to the parking space I parked.
