Tsugaike Nature Park / Sunny & Cloudy 2021.Sep.07
The seasonal rain front was bringing some rainy and cloudy days after the weekend on 8/28 (Sat) and 8/29 (Sun). This morning, it was surprisingly cool with the thinly cloudy sky with the temperature of +15 degrees. The marshes in the nature park have already started to change their color into the autumn look (Photo).

We could see the vast cloud sea in the east and south side from the early morning to 10:30 a.m. One of the best spots to see the sea of clouds is the viewpoint located on the highest area of Yase-one (Photo). I could not stop taking photos of this beautiful view when I arrived at Yase-one through the wooden path from Ukishima Marsh.

Now, Torikabuto is in the good season to see in Mizubasho and Ukishima Marsh. Iwashobu which can be found in each marsh also started to change the color from white to pink or red. I could find other alpine plants such as Obatakeshimaran, Benibanaichigo, Gozentachibana and red seeds of Akamono.

At Tenbo Marsh. the panoramic view of the iconic 3 peaks of Hakuba (Mt. Hakuba Yarigatake, Mt. Shakushi, Mt. Hakuba from the left side) gave me a great refreshing time. People coming after me also enjoying taking pictures and talking about the mountains. While I was in the nature park, the temperature never went over 20 degrees today.
