▼It wasn't enough to accumulate, but snow was falling all the time.
▼The Bunanowakimizu water still flows at this time of year.

▼We enter the marshland.
The boardwalk is wet and it's scary.
▼Puddles here and there.
It will probably freeze soon.
Apparently Japanese black salamanders live in the Tamahara Marsh, and the place somehow gives off that vibe.
▼Looking back at my exploration log, I found what looked like salamander eggs at the end of May. (Exploration log for May 30, 2021)
▼With so many deciduous trees, I imagine it must be quite beautiful during the autumn foliage season.
▼A small stream.
There is a fair amount of water flowing.
▼It seems likely that salamanders can be found in places like this too.

▼We arrived at the marshland area.
The wind is strong and the snow is blowing.
It would be tough without gloves and winter clothing.
I took a few photos and decided to go home.
▼Animal footprints I found on the way back.
Maybe a deer?
