樅沢岳
Takayama, Gifu · Elevation 2,755 m
Mt. Momisawadake is a 2,755-meter peak on the boundary between Ōmachi City in Nagano Prefecture and Takayama City in Gifu Prefecture, standing on the Nishi-kama Ridge of the Hida Range (Northern Alps) between Mt. Sugoroku to the northwest and Mt. Yari to the southeast. Within Chūbu-Sangaku National Park, the mountain is the eroded remnant of a Middle-Pleistocene volcano active roughly 400,000–300,000 years ago with a total eruption volume of 74 km³ DRE. Most climbers reach it as the first peak on the Nishi-kama Ridge from Sugoroku-goya hut; the summit is a celebrated viewpoint over the western ridge to Yari-ga-take. It is included in the Nihon Hyakukōzan and Zoku Gifu Hyakuzan lists.
