2026年6月上旬、森吉山山頂付近はまだ雪も残り寒かった。撮影日は小雨が降り、霧に覆われていたため、進むことに困難した。しかし、普段見れない水滴滴る草花を撮影することができた。

シラネアオイ、チングルマの群生、イワカガミ、ゴゼンタチバナなど多くの花が咲いていた。ニッコウキスゲはまだこれから。特に目的だったチングルマを見れたのはよかった。

登山・撮影背景をこちらのブログにまとめました。

In early June 2026, it was still cold near the summit of Mt. Moriyoshi, with snow still lingering. On the day of the photo shoot, a light rain was falling and the area was shrouded in fog, making it difficult to proceed. However, I was able to photograph flowers and plants dripping with water—a sight not usually seen.

Many flowers were in bloom, including Shiranéaoi, clusters of Chinguruma, Iwakagami, and Gozentachibana. The Nikko Kisuge were not yet in bloom. I was especially glad to have seen the Chinguruma, which had been my main goal.
