Volcanic activity at Mt. Usu continues as tourists look on

TOYA, Japan - Volcanic activity at Mt. Usu in southwestern Hokkaido continues May 1, nearly a month since the mountain's last big eruption on March 31, as tourists watch from a lookout in the village of Toya, on the northwestern side of the mountain.

Lake Ashi

This photo captures Lake Ashinoko, Dogashima, and Mt. Fuji viewed from Tomi-bansho (lookout station) of Hakone barrier station. If the Imperial Villa on the peninsula projecting in the lake on the right side of the photo can be seen, it was taken after 1886. However, it is outside of the photo, and therefore, cannot be verified. The triangular mountain before Mt. Fuji is Mt. Mikuni (alt. 1,102m), one of the outer mountain range of Hakone.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number47‐19‐0]
