Mount Kabuto
兜山
Yonezawa, Yamagata · Elevation 1,199 m
Mount Kabuto (1199.3 m) rises in southern Yonezawa City, Yamagata Prefecture, as a foothill of the Azuma Range. Tradition holds that the Yonezawa-clan senior retainer Naoe Kanetsugu surveyed the castle-town layout from its summit. The view from the top opens north over the Yonezawa Basin and east to the Azuma Range and the Tengendai plateau. The approach from Tsunagi settlement follows a forest track and a stream before a final steep ascent equipped with ropes.
