Mount Odash

"The scenery of the Hidaka Mountains in this season when it is sunny and snowy is very beautiful."

Mt. Odash, located on the north side of the Hidaka Mountains, is a mountain 🏔️ that can be said to be a symbol of Shintoku Town

The snow has melted on the plains, but there is still snow on the mountains.
When it was snowing all over the place, I had to remove the snow, so I couldn't wait for Spring, but now I feel nostalgic for the pure white and cold snow.

This morning, the cold temperature eased and became warm, and by noon it was close to 18 degrees Celsius.
It's still a long way from the cheerfulness of the Spring, but I can feel the Spring from the wind and the change of scenery.

Welcome Shintoku Town

[Kindling a fire in the snow]
The last day of March during Spring Vacation.
I thought it was getting warmer, but the unstable weather in Nishiokoppe Village was a little chilly, and the sky was snowy.

However, the children who gathered in spite of the cold
Have a bonfire and play in the snow. He was in good spirits.

The bonfire is made by the children by hand from the time it is lit.
Practice using matches and think about what kind of wood you can build to make it burn.

The bonfire, which began to burn firmly,
The smoke completely hid the faces of the people on the other side.

Beside the bonfire
Adult or child alike, a serious snowball fight.

Gari baked sweet potatoes were deliciously finished.

There are also seasons when you can see snow and bonfires at the same time
I think it's almost over.

【 Taiki Town on February 6 】

The day after the heavy snowfall that fell from February 4th to 5th, the weather was very nice and sunny in Tokachi, so I drive around the In the town.
The familiar scenery has become a beautiful snowy scene!

【Shirataki Winter Sugata】

Take a look 😳!

Due to the cold wave of the past few days, Shirataki has become ❄️✨ beautiful with snow and ice

A series of slightly bluish snow and ice pillars make it a spectacular sight 👏

If you can, see for yourself! … I would like to say that, but the road to Shirataki is also coated with snow and ice and is ⚠️ very dangerous

This time, specially trained tourism association staff have climbed out of life, so please Enjoy the photos ... 🙏🙏🙏

This is already a dangerous road to Shirataki, so please understand 😭

Even so, the art created by Nature is really beautiful...

I was tired of all the snow, but it's ✨ not all bad

Let's 💪❤️ 🔥 have a positive and fun time

　In Moseushi Town, from mid-December to the end of March every year, about 13,000 LED illuminations are installed on a birch tree with a height of about 20 meters that grows on the site of the volleyball club training camp of the former Moseushi Commercial High School, and you can enjoy the fantastic scenery.
