榛名山でも熊が出没します。

【画像をクリックし、拡大すると臨場感が出ます。】

　写真は群馬県の中央に聳える「榛名山」(標高１４４９m)の全景です。倉賀野町からはすべての峰が見え見事です。その理由は、榛名山が南西から北東に伸びており、私の住む倉賀野町が南東に位置し、正面から見るからです。

　ご覧の通り、榛名山は多くの峰々から成り立ち、元々それぞれは火山と考えられます。私は今までにほぼすべての峰に登りました。峰々からはそれぞれ雄大な景色が見られ、特に西端の天狗山山頂からは西上州の景色がよく見えます。私が最も印象深く感じたのは見かけ上一番高い「相馬山」で関東平野が一望です。富士山もよく見えます。

　中央にはカルデラの榛名湖があり、周囲およそ４kmの広い湖です。今でも、時折、マイナスイオンを感じつつ、一周ウォーキングをします。帰路には途中の伊香保温泉に浸かり、これが楽しみです。しかし、時折、熊が出没するので、榛名山に登るときは細心の注意が必要です。友人アルカディアさんはここで熊に遭遇し、逃げる途中、転んで足を骨折しましたが、それでも逃げたそうです。

　一方、我妻川の北岸の丘陵地には黒井峯遺跡があり、6世紀中頃に起きた榛名山二ツ岳の噴火で埋没した古墳時代の集落の遺跡があり、今でも、多くの家屋が埋没したままです。場所は子持中学校のすぐ西です。

　以前にレース鳩を飼育してたとき、数回、この黒井峯遺跡から距離２５km程の放鳩訓練をしました。黒井峯遺跡からは日本の名湯「伊香保温泉」の街並みがよく見えます。私のフェイスブックの上部に掲げてある円錐形の山は最も東の水沢山です。

Dear my overseas friends

　The simultaneous interpretation for you will be later, because from now on I will participate to the radio gymnastics held at the park and take a breakfast. Then I'll interpret into English for your understanding above mentioned contents.

　The photo shows a panoramic view of Mt. Haruna (1,449m above sea level), which towers in the center of Gumma Prefecture, Japan. All the peaks can be seen from my Kuragano-Town and are spectacular. The reason for this is that Mt. Haruna stretches from southwest to northeast, and Kuragano-Town is located in the southeast so that we can see the panoramic view from the just in front.

　As you can see, Mt. Haruna is made up of many peaks, each of which is originally thought to be a volcano. I have climbed almost every peaks so far. Magnificent views can be seen from each of the peaks, and the view of western Gumma Prefecture can be seen particularly well from the summit of Mt. Tengu at the western end. What impressed me most was Mt. Sohma, which is apparently the highest mountain and offers a panoramic view of the Kanto Plain. We can also see Mt. Fuji clearly.

　In the center of Mt. Haruna is the caldera of Lake Haruna, which is a large lake that Ms. Sarah Spence had seen, with a circumference of approximately 4 km. Even now, I sometimes walk around the lake feeling the minus ion. I'm looking forward to soaking in Ikaho Spa on the way back. However, bears occasionally appear, so you need to be extremely careful when climbing Mt. Haruna. My friend Arcadia encountered a bear here, and while he was running away, he fell and broke his leg, but he still ran away.

　On the other hand, on the hilly area on the north bank of the Agatsuma-River, there are the Kuroimine ruins, which contain the ruins of a village from the Kofun period of 6th century that was buried by the eruption of Mt. Futatsu-dake in Mt. Haruna. The location is just west of Komochi Junior High School.

　When I previously was raising racing pigeons, I conducted pigeon release training several times here at a distance of about 25 km. From the Kuroimine ruins, you can clearly see the cityscape of Japan's famous Ikaho Spar. The conical mountain at the top of this Facebook page is the easternmost Mt. Mizusawa.
