Happo-one / Sunny2017.Jun.19
Thin clouds were covered the sky and sunlight was weak and it was a comfortable weather. The wind was blowing weakly and I was sweat a little while climbing. The clouds were not rising and I could see beautiful Hakuba Sanzan.

Yukiwari-sou were blooming beautifully at the both side of the trail. They were in full bloom from Shakujii Cairn to Happo-ike Pond. Haru-rindo were also in bloom but they were flowering moderately under the leaves and grasses.

The snow on the trail from No.2 Cairn to Happo Cairn was completely melted. The non-rainy season weather is continuing, so the trails were dry and it comfortable to walk. The western wind was blowing strongly after Happo Cairn to the upper part. It was bit chilly and many people were started to wear long-sleeved shirt at around No.3 Cairn.

Miyama-azumagiku were also in bloom in all the route. When I was watching carefully in side the bushes, I also found some Mushitori-sumire and Kibana-ikarisou.

About 3 m of water surface was seen at the west side of Happo-ike. There were cracks in the middle of snow and I thought that it may take 1-3 days to thaw. The trail was started to crowded from 10 a.m. By the way, I saw a couple of ptarmigans same as the previous report.
