Tsugaike Nature Park / Sunny & Cloudy2017.Sep.01
It has become much colder from yesterday. When I walked toward Tsugaike Ropeway after getting of the first gondola, I found blue flowers of Miyamatorikabuto. Torikabuto is a poisonous flower, but also one of the most popular flower in the fall. Around Ukishima Marsh, Yachitorikabuto was blooming as well.

In the nature park, Iwashobu is still beautiful, especially in Watasuge and Ukishima Marsh. We could see the blue sky from the upper part, but the thick clouds covered the peaks of Northern Alps. Because of the coming typhoon, the nature park was quiet in the early morning.

The temperature was 13.5 degrees at 8:30 a.m. on the mountain. I felt even cold while stopping and many people were wearing jackets. After that, the cold wind and fog was blowing in Yase-one.

The season of alpine flower’s fruits and seeds are coming now. Oobatakeshimaran put its fruits on the top of the thin stems. Besides, I also saw Nanakamado and Oohyoutanboku.

The long rain and low temperature of August made the autumn tints come faster to the plants and trees. However, the grass of each marsh is not still changing its color. The blue sky in the east got overcast at around 9:00 a.m. and the sunlight was blocked off on my way back.
