From my hike I had a view of some of the craters and it was interesting to note the transition of the ecology by age. Take Kofuji, a rock-strewn pit with only scrubby vegetation clinging to the slopes which are at their angle of repose. The crater looks like a giant antlion nest. Nearby Okenuma and Goshikinuma are water-filled craters. Kuranuma is now partly filled in by sediments so it has a crescent shape. Over the ridge another crater looks like a bog and still further away there are now trees growing on the floor of the bowl of an even older crater.Peterhttp://www.tsubakuro.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
