A snowscape in Hakone

A snowscape in Hakone

It happens once in a while there is a lot of snow from February to March at Hakone. Depending on the altitude the amount of snowfall is evidently different. There is a snowbelt around the altitude of 300m and 500m and below that line, the snow hardly accumulates. Therefore, this must be higher than Ohiradai and definately not Yumoto or Tonosawa. However, it is difficult to determine the exact location.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐17‐0]
