旧道沢ルートは濡れ。午後霧雨に注意

Mount Shari summit is currently cloudy with a temperature of 13.9℃, feeling like 13.6℃. The temperature difference from the base is 4.6℃. Winds are light, with gusts up to 6.3m/s, creating calm conditions. Cloudy skies are expected through the morning, but light drizzle is forecast around 3 PM. Although the precipitation amount is minimal at 0.2mm, high humidity suggests overall wet ground conditions. The Old Trail, specifically the route with continuous waterfalls, follows a stream bed, making rocks and moss particularly slippery. Careful foot placement is essential.

For layering during activity, a moisture-wicking base layer and a light mid-layer should suffice. During breaks or on exposed ridges, wear waterproof and windproof rain gear to prevent chilling from sweat. With increased chances of precipitation in the afternoon, carrying full rain gear is mandatory. Crampons or microspikes are not needed, but sturdy hiking boots with good grip are essential.

Risks of lightning and strong winds are low. However, with perceived temperatures ranging from the upper 13s to lower 18s Celsius throughout the day, hypothermia from sweat-induced chilling is a concern. Mount Shari is also known as a habitat for brown bears. Bear bells and bear spray are recommended as appropriate bear countermeasures when entering the mountain. Precipitation chances decrease in the evening, but temperatures will gradually drop. For any post-sunset activity, ensure you have a headlamp and adequate cold-weather gear.
