A couple of weekends ago I headed out with Sam to maybe my favorite mountain in Hokkaido: Midori-dake (緑岳, 2019.9 m). It sits above maybe my favorite onsen in Hokkaido–Daisetsu Kogen Onsen, known for its milky white waters, its huge bubbling fumaroles, and the fact that it is open for precisely 123 days. In fact, their website lists the number of days they will be open left in the season–and not much else.
