I went on 11/12 before the mountain closed for the season. There were already very few maple leaves, and there was snow on the mountain. The temperature was low, but walking kept me warm enough, though my hands were very cold and icy. This time, I chose to walk to Myojin Pond. I got off at the bus stop and started walking. I began at Kappa Bridge at 12 PM and returned to Kappa Bridge around 2:30 PM, with the bus departing at 3:10 PM. The wait to take photos at Myojin Pond wasn't very long. If there are too many people queuing, you'll need to decide if it's worth waiting. We walked at a fairly brisk pace; it wasn't a leisurely stroll, but we weren't rushing either.🤣🤣
