千畳敷カールガス濃い。視界不良下の行動は慎重に

Mount Kisokoma summit is experiencing light overcast conditions with visibility under 1km, severely limiting sightlines. The temperature is 4.8℃, feeling like 2.9℃, a significant 8.3℃ colder than the 13.1℃ at the base. Maintain adequate thermal protection from the outset of your ascent.

Light overcast skies are expected throughout the day. Although precipitation probability is high between noon and 3 PM, the forecast indicates 0mm of rainfall, suggesting dense fog or mist. This limited visibility increases the risk of route errors and falls, especially on the steep Haccho-zaka slope leading from Senjojiki Curl. Extreme caution is advised on this section due to potentially slippery conditions.

While the daytime high temperature is forecast to reach 7.7℃, factoring in gusts up to 6.1m/s, the effective temperature will feel near freezing. Clothing can become damp quickly in the mist, elevating the risk of hypothermia. A waterproof and breathable outer shell along with sufficient insulating layers are essential. Exposed rocky ridges like those on Mt. Hokendake should be avoided entirely in poor visibility. Although there is no snow cover, the ground may be wet and slippery due to the fog. Always carry a map, compass, or GPS and continuously monitor your location.
