Mt. Asama, which straddles Gunma and Nagano prefectures, displays clear signs of autumn on Wednesday, with the snow-dusted summit of the 2,568-meter-high mountain and the yellow leaves of the trees at the mountain’s base offering a pleasant contrast to the clear blue sky.
The first snowfall for Mt. Asama this season was observed on Tuesday, six days earlier than average, according to the Maebashi Meteorological Office.
