Public transportation (bus) brings you to the pass during summer and fall.
Before a downhill, let's climb Mt. Kokushi to enjoy panorama from its peak.
What a beautiful sky!
There were a dozen of people at the peak.
Do you see Mount Fuji appearing its top behind a cumulus cloud?
The Kofu basin where I started this morning was quite far away.
Then getting back to the entrance of trail, I unfolded the bike and started downhill.
Clouds gradually covered blue sky and temperature declines to chill Brompton and me.
Yellow leaves of of larch trees covered a mountain and a road.
On the way the beauty of brilliant autumn leaves took my breath away.
A winding road continued through yellow autumn tints.
Variety of beautiful autumn colors grabbed my attention.
After an hour downhill, we were reaching the town of the Kofu basin.
The road to Oodarumi pass finally closed a few days ago (November 26) due to snow fall and road surface freezing. Winter comes and the road will open next spring.
