Greetings

Sharing with you such a rare snow treat up there at 3334 steps at Nihon Ichi no Ishidan at Misato Machi. I went up there 2 days ago.

Address is here: Sakamoto, Misato, Shimomashiki District, Kumamoto Prefecture 861-4415

Going down is more difficult because some of the stairs are slippery. Do go early because once it gets dark I can’t imagine how to go down safely. We started climbing at 12pm and reached the top at 2pm. Wear gloves and hat because it is cold there. Beware of the icy steps.

This can be alternative of seeing snow spots other than Aso when snow comes to Kumamoto.

I shared more pictures at Facebook Page “Kumamoto and Beyond”

Note: These pictures were taken on Saturday 13 January 2018. I don’t know how much snow left now when you reach there. But at least it is a good climbing exercise. This was my 2nd climb. I stopped at 650 steps at my first climb.
