Tsugaike Nature Park / Cloudy2016.Aug.19
Obon Season has passed and it has been overcast in these days. The light rain in the early morning gave drops of water on the alpine plants and made them more beautiful. Some of the plants started to bear seeds already, such as Akaminoinutsuge (photo), Benibanaichigo, Gozentachibana and Kuromamenoki. We can see the sign of Fall in those scenes.

People started to trekking later than usual because of the cloudy weather, but I met more and more people from 9:30 a.m. The wooden paths and rocks in the trails were slippy, so we needed to walk carefully today.

In Watasuge and Ukishima Marsh, the grass got into more yellow. Besides, the leaves of Nanakamado changed its color into red. We can enjoy different flavor from those of Summer now.

Umebachisou and Yachitorikabuto were still in their peak in Mizubasho, Watasuge and Ukishima Marsh. I found Iwashobu turned into red, making a red and white gradation.

Around 10:00 a.m, we could see the blue sky through the breaks of clouds. At that time, the trails and wooden paths got very crowded with groups and families. The sunlight made the temperature higher and higher, but I could walk comfortably thanks to the cool wind of early Fall.
