姿見周辺は視界不良。残雪多く滑りやすい

Current conditions at the summit of Mt. Asahidake are cloudy with a temperature of 4.2 degrees Celsius, feeling like 2.5 degrees Celsius. The temperature difference from the base is 4.7 degrees Celsius, indicating significantly colder conditions higher up. Humidity is 98% and visibility is less than 1km due to fog. Light drizzle is expected through the morning, with temperatures gradually rising to 9.3 degrees Celsius by noon, but low clouds are forecast to persist. Be mindful of reduced body temperature from getting wet.

Snow depth remains at 115cm. The route from Sugatami Station to the summit will likely be a mix of residual snow, mud, and wet ground. Poor visibility, combined with slippery footing, increases the risk of accidents. Carrying chain spikes is highly recommended. For layering, a quick-drying base layer, a fleece mid-layer, and a waterproof-breathable outer shell are essential.

Visibility below 1km will continue through the morning. Exercise extreme caution around the Jigokudani fumarole area, paying close attention to footing and potential gas exposure. Navigate carefully to avoid losing the trail. The drizzle is expected to subside in the afternoon, clearing to partly cloudy, then sunny by evening, improving visibility. However, temperatures will drop again, so maintain adequate cold weather protection until your activity concludes. While risks of strong winds or thunderstorms are low, continue to be vigilant against hypothermia, especially if wet.
