札幌湾望む快晴の一日。ハイランドは爽快

The summit is forecast for partly cloudy conditions, clearing to mostly sunny later in the day. As of 7 AM, the summit temperature is 14.7°C, feeling like 13.9°C. Daytime temperatures are expected to rise to 19.2°C, with gentle winds and gusts peaking at around 10 m/s. A temperature difference of approximately 3°C will persist between the summit and the base area throughout the day. With no snow accumulation or precipitation, the ground is presumed to be in a generally dry condition.

For layering during activity, a wicking base layer paired with a light fleece or long-sleeved shirt is appropriate. During breaks or in the exposed Highland Zone, a wind-resistant lightweight shell jacket should be worn to account for the perceived temperature of around 15°C. Light hiking boots are sufficient, but carrying rain gear as a precaution is advisable. Crampons or microspikes are not necessary.

Today, the risk of upper lift closures due to strong winds is low. When traversing the steep slopes of the Highland Zone, even on summer trails, exercise caution for potential slips on wet rocks or unstable ground. The risk of lightning and hypothermia is low. However, if your activity extends into the evening, temperatures near the summit will drop to around 12°C, so remember to add extra layers for warmth. A day offering excellent views of Sapporo and Ishikari Bay is expected.
