Mount Oonanjimine

Japanese: 大汝峰 - おおなんじみね
Mount Oonanjimine

...A volcano that was active in the latter half of the Quaternary Period, located in the Ryohaku Mountains that straddle the three prefectures of Ishikawa, Gifu, and Fukui. The name of the mountain refers to the three main peaks, Gozenmine (2,702m), Oonanjimine (2,684m), and Kengamine (2,680m), as well as Betsusan (2,399m) and Sannomine (2,128m) to the south, and Hakusan Shakadake (2,053m) to the west. Near the summit, snow can reach 10m in winter, and the name Hakusan was born from the large amount of remaining snow.
