Mount Kemō
毛猛山
Uonuma, Niigata / Tadami, Fukushima · Elevation 1,517 m
Mount Kemō (1,517.1 m) straddles Tadami Town in Fukushima Prefecture and Uonuma City in Niigata Prefecture as the main peak of the Kemō Massif within the Echigo-Sanzan-Tadami Quasi-National Park. There is no maintained trail; the approach climbs the long ridge from Ōshirakawa Station on the Tadami Line over Mount Ashizawa, Mount Tarōsuke, Hyakuugadake and Naka-dake. The peak is climbed almost exclusively in late spring (April–May) when consolidated snow covers the dense scrub. It is included in the One Hundred Mountains of Niigata and the "Minor 12" famed for inaccessibility.
