Mount Mitsumine

#hellohalloween Mount Mitsumine sits in the northern part of Chichibu‑Tama‑Kai National Park, in Saitama Prefecture, Japan. The mountain’s name “Mitsumine” literally means “three peaks” — originally referring to the summits of Mt. Myōhō (1,332 m), Mt. Shiraiwa (1,921 m) and Mt. Kumotori (2,017 m) which form a distinctive outline visible from the shrine area. The shrine (Mitsumine Shrine) is located at about 1,100 m elevation on the mountain, though the wider area extends higher.
