Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

When there is little snow and the road is open, access is easy. The cache is hidden beside an unsealed section of the road. From mid November until the snow melts the road is closed.
The cache is hidden in a prominent place between the river and the unsealed road. Approaching from the North, the road may be open in winter to about 15km downhill of the cache. The small tupperware 7cm x 10cm cache contains a pencil, a notebook with contact instructions and a small enamel badge. The badge may be kept by the finder if they replace it with something more valuable. The geocacher is advised to have empty water bottles when they reach this cache. A word of warning; travelling in the mountains in Hokkaido during the snowing seasons can be very dangerous. Also, when this cache was placed, fresh footprints of a large brown bear were found very close by. Geocachers search for this cache at their own risk. We checked the cache on 08 Nov 2009. It is in good condition, having survived the winter. Our children added their drawings to the cache notebook.

My approach was from Route 39.
However, because of the snow in front 20km from the destination was closed.
This weekend, I will try again from a different route :)
