Happo-one / Sunny & Cloudy 2021.Sep.10
I hiked up to Cairn No.1 (Photo) after leaving from the parking area in front of Cafeteria Kurobishi where already had about 30 cars parking at 6:30 a.m.. The staff of the lift said, “We could see the beautiful sunrise and morning glow today. I also saw many people starting to climb up with headlights from the early morning.” Kurobishi No.3 Pair Lift will be open at 5:00 a.m. on Sep. 11 (Sat) and Sep. 12 (Sun).

Although the temperature was staying at 15 degrees, it was warm enough to take off my long sleeve shirt because of the strong sunlight. At Happo-ike Pond where the leaves have already started to change their color into the autumn look (Photo), people from Hakuba talked, “We always check your reports! We overslept today unfortunately, so we looked at the morning glow at our home and then, we had breakfast at Happo-ike Pond.”

I heard people surprising at the amazing view in the morning, “It was really worth to get Spectacular View Ticket to come here!” At around 9:20 a.m, the clouds coming up from the south face of the mountain blocked off the sunlight (Photo) and it got suddenly cool there.

1 hour ago from the 3rd photo, the blue sky spread over us at around from Happo Cairn to Cairn No.3 (Photo). A couple who would stay in their tent at Mt. Karamatsu Chojo Sanso Hut talked, “We came up from Kurobishi, but we regret our choice because we found it was better to wait for the open of the gondola than hiking up the steep slope along Kurobishi No.3 Pair. However, we are still happy to see this beautiful view.”
