Sahoro is sunny for the first time in a while.

Today I was interviewed for Tokachi Mainichi Shimbun's free magazine Chai February issue.

By the way, what is [Bear Mountain Forest Nature Tour]?

I think there are many people who think so.

[Bear Mountain Forest Nature Tour] is, as the name suggests,

A new program to explore the Bear Mountain forest on snowshoes while the park is closed.

Not only can you feel the brown bears, but it's also really fun to walk on the fluffy snow♪

Invading the Bear Mountain forest, which is completely inaccessible in the summer.

Don't you get excited just thinking about it? ?

Back to the topic, we held a tour for the February issue of Chai.

Inside the double doors like Jurassic Park.

This is what the promenade looks like from the perspective of a brown bear.

A standing tree with markings that explain the bear watching bus.

Even with 40cm of snow and a tall guide who is nearly 180cm tall.

Claw marks still at the top.

Walking on fluffy fresh snow on the way home after getting used to snowshoeing

It looked like a lot of fun from behind.

Please feel free to join us, whether you have experienced Bear Mountain or not.
