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.
