Mount Petegari - Mount Petegari

Japanese: ペテガリ岳 - ぺてがりだけ
Mount Petegari - Mount Petegari

This mountain is located in the center of the Hidaka Mountains in south-central Hokkaido, on the border between the Hidaka Subprefectural Bureau and the Tokachi General Subprefectural Bureau. It is 1,736 meters above sea level. It is made of metamorphic rocks such as hybrid rock and gneiss, and three cirques can be seen on the northeast side near the summit. It is a representative mountain of Hidaka, but is known for its long climbing route because it is located at the very back of the mountain range. You enter from the valley of the Nakano River from the Tokachi side, or the Shizunai River from the Hidaka side, and climb along the ridge, but this is a course that is not easy for anyone other than an expert.

北海道中南部、日高山脈(ひだかさんみゃく)の中央、日高振興局管内と十勝(とかち)総合振興局管内の境界にある山。標高1736メートル。混成岩や片麻岩などの変成岩からなり、山頂付近の北東側に三つのカール(圏谷)がみられる。日高の代表的名山であるが、山脈最奥部に位置するため登攀(とうはん)路の長いことで知られる。十勝側からは中ノ川、日高側からは静内(しずない)川の河谷から入り、尾根伝いに登るが、登山は専門家でないと容易でないコースである。
