Hi.

I am in Sahoro today, on the way to Kushiro for learning about all sorts of Hokkaido.

Bear mountain park is pretty well known place. It is not easy to see bears at the mountain ,unless you are lucky or with skillfull guides.

Therefore, it is good to see real brown bears for tourists in Sahoro.

Brown bears are really beautiful creatures and never get board to see, if you are in a safe place.

Hello.

There are two ways driving along Lake Chubetsu near Taisetsu-zan National Park.

Put a base camp just beside the lake and make a small fire for keep you warm.
Bring some fresh as meat and veges for BBQ. Ofcourse beer, wine and sake or so on.

Chill out.

For safety issues, I will check the weather forcast before I come and also will have a contact with local city council for have some info about the lake. If I could that I might prepare an engine boat for own rescue. etc etc.

Nice to be summer.

Taisetsu info; Asahidake Campsite

【 DATE 】1６th July 2008
【 AREA 】Asahidake Camp Site, Taisetsu-Zan National Park, Hokkaido, Japan
【 WEATHER 】Fine
【TEMPERATURE】Approx 20℃

Hi.

I went to Asahidake Campsite today. This is fascinating site.
Less people, quiet and clean facilities like wooden house toilet opens 24 hours a day 7.
There is a small fire place in the middle you can have a small fire to cook or watch.

And as my nature tour, you are able to walk from this camp site to Wasabi numa (Wasabi=Horse reddish, numa=pond). This short track needs approx 3 hours walk at average time in summer season, this area is not well maintenance because of the budget matter and the track is one of the best cross country ski course of whole nation in winter. As you know that grass glows a lot in summer in Asia, especially Hokkaido.

You must think about mesquites too. Do not forget to bring anti-mesquites spray with you, or you could buy an organic anti-insects spray at ropeway station nearby this campsite. No matter you are experienced in outdoors or not, a map and Campas are essential to use here for safety&relax walking in a fog especially.

To the last, you should make noise before you go over the hill or bush where you enable to see the front.That is the basic skill for avoiding brown bears to meet too close distance at the backcountry in Hokkaido.

Then, you have a nice walking in Kamui mintara( Gods play in the garden in Ainu language.)

Thanks.

Konnichwa.

My friends from work and I had dinner at one of the best Indian curry shop called Indo in Asahikawa.The restaurant had a casual relaxing atmosphere.

Usually, I don't like very very spicy food but things we had tonight were rather mild and we enjoyed it. I had chicken curry dish with Naan bread & steamed rice. Fresh veges and tender chicken in curry. Naan was crispy.

Everything tasted great, shop workers were good looking and also did a good service with "smiling". mm Kawaii, I must come here again.
