Mt. Hiuchidake

火打岳

Mogami, Yamagata / Shinjō-shi, Yamagata · Elevation 1,237 m

Hiuchidake is a 1,237 m peak straddling Mogami Town and Shinjō City in Yamagata Prefecture, a principal summit in the south-western Kamuro Range. Heavy winter winds load the narrow ridge with striking cornices, and exposed granite has carved an asymmetric crest above deep gorges. Multiple maintained trails — including the Shinkuramui and Hiuchi-Shindō routes — climb the peak, which is included in the Yamagata 100 and Yamagata prefectural mountain guide.
