Drove the #Kusatsu- #ShigaKogen route, the highest national road in #Japan, today.

It was 2C at the peak at #Yokoteyama.

This road is closed for much of the year due to heavy snow.

It’s mostly beautiful, but really bleak at points, particularly near Mt #Shirane, a very active volcano.

Sundial snow shadow
hide and seek our otherselves
touch and try to go
