再び蓮華温泉雪を断念して1人白馬乗鞍に往復した2017年
Giving up Renge Onsen, another lonely day trip to Hakuba Norikura, 2017

4月23日
23 April

概況

3-4月の低温のおかげで雪が多いというのに、3月の連休が海外で行けなかった後、みんなの都合が合わず。案内人は、今年も白馬乗鞍岳まで往復してみた。確かに豊富な雪。しかし、白馬乗鞍周辺はアイスバーン。
The guide found that surely the snow was still deep thanks to the low temperature in March and April when he went to the summmit of Hakuba Norikura, where the snow was icy. However, due to the commitments to meetings etc. of the members, Renge Onsen was too far once again for us. During the only period when the other members might have been able to go immediately after the Renge Onsen started its service in late March, the guide was in Madagascar.
