Mount Torikabuto

鳥甲山

Sakae, Nagano · Elevation 2,038 m

Mount Torikabuto is a 2,038 m peak rising on the western edge of the Akiyama-gō in Sakae Village, Shimominochi District, Nagano Prefecture, sitting within Jōshin'etsu Kōgen National Park as part of the Mount Naeba volcanic chain. Its sharp ridges and collapsed cliff faces give it a profile severe enough to earn the nickname "the second Tanigawa-dake," and snow lingers on its flanks well into summer. Listed in the Nihon Nihyaku Meizan and the Shinshū Hyakumeizan, the peak has only two trailheads, Yashiki and Mujina-daira, and is most often climbed as a traverse between them; the route over Shiroguraōno-kashira and Akaguraōno-kashira features a long succession of chained rock sections suited to experienced hikers. The summit views sweep across Naeba, Saburyū, and the Ura-Shiga ranges.
