William We’ve had some rough weather recently. Kumanichi reports on the first snow in Aso. Generally, the roads are clear enough to travel there without tire chains, but caution is advised. Sometimes, there is also snow on Mt Kimpo. It is great fun for the kids, but the road there is less well maintained, so if you go up in the snow, plan to drive very slowly and carefully. https://kumanichi.com/articles/1235599
