Mt. Keitousan

鶏頭山

Hanamaki, Iwate · Elevation 1,445 m

Mt. Keitōsan is a 1,445-meter peak straddling Ōhasama-chō of Hanamaki City and Kawai of Miyako City in Iwate Prefecture, lying within Hayachine Quasi-National Park as the westernmost summit on the Mt. Hayachine western ridge. Its name — "cockscomb" — comes from the twin peaks that, seen from below, resemble a rooster's comb. From the Take trailhead a long ridge route climbs over Keitōsan and Nakadake to the Mt. Hayachine summit; an emergency shelter for about 30 people stands roughly two hours up the trail. The mountain is included in the Iwate Hyakumeizan list.
