日本の国立公園さんのインスタグラム写真 - (日本の国立公園Instagram)「Measuring Japan’s first snowfall of the season ❄️🏔 Winter is coming, but how exactly does Japan measure the first snowfall of the year? ⛷️📏 In Japan, the first snowfall is recorded at the peak of a given mountain. Most weather stations report their first snowfall from early September through the middle of December. 🌨📝 And the winner for first snowfall goes to: Mt. Asahidake in Hokkaido’s Daisetsuzan National Park! Standing tall as the highest mountain in Hokkaido at 2,291 m, Mt. Asahidake usually records its first snowfall in late September with the mighty Mt. Fuji at 3,776 m often reporting only a few days later. During September, the weather can suddenly become cold, so it's important to be prepared for mountain climbing with warm clothing like gloves, hats, and scarves. Please also note that there is less daylight during this time of the year, so make sure to plan accordingly. 🧤🧣 Share a ❄️ in the comments if you’re excited for winter! 📍 Mt.
