A Run by Lake Shumarinai

I spent the long weekend staying by Lake Shumarinai in Hokkaido.  I could take a nice run in the area on Sunday.  The lake was made in 1943 - with the completion of Uryu Dam during the Pacific War.

A sign shows the way to the lake and camp sites.

There are many farm product fields near by.

A little bus stop.

The road has an arrow overhead that shows the edge of the road when snow covers the area.

A nice creek.

A memorial for the victims of forced labor to build the dam.

Uryu Daiichi (No.1) Dam.

A levee that closes the dam.

A bird's eye view map of the area.

A monuments for the dam completion.

The number (-41.2) is the lowest temperature in Celsius recorded in Japan.
