On Mountain Day, August 11, the Tsumagoi Village Tourism Association held a hiking event at Kenashi Pass, on the border between Gunma and Nagano Prefectures. In front of the new border sign, installed in May of this year, there was a surprise unveiling of the old sign that the association had been storing, and participants enjoyed taking commemorative photos with the secluded sign as a backdrop.

They also toured the ruins of the Ogushi Mine, which is normally off-limits to the public, while listening to an explanation.

They also learned about the history of the area, where 245 people were killed in a landslide, and prayed in front of the Jizo Hall, reflecting on the history of the mountain and the region.
