  16. A little beyond Nikkō in Tochigi Prefecture is the Lake Chūzenji (中禅寺湖) area with white birch trees and snow on the nearby peaks, although it was warm at 1,500 meters. In my 45 or so years here, I had only gone a little north of Tōkyō to Tsukuba to teach a graduate school class.

    There were quite a few monkeys around, though I'm not sure which one saw no evil. There were signs in Japanese about bears, usually docile to humans, but not always. We didn't see any on lonely paths with few tourists. Frankly, you need wheels to see much of these great sights, although I saw Western guys waiting for buses, which run infrequently in the countryside of Japan. Also interesting was an onsen (hot springs) village in the mountains, with a mild sulfur smell and colors welling up, and hot water puddles.
