Kamabuchi Falls and Caution Bears

 After my first and hopefully last for a while experience with Japanese bears, I journeyed back to the woods. This time, I went to Hanamaki. Close to one onsen complex is a trail that leads to a beautiful little waterfall, Kamabuchi no Taki. This was the sign at the head of the trail.

Is a Caution Bear like the Japanese Smokey?

 "Please ring this bell when you walk around here."

Every few meters was another stand. You bet your boots I rang those bells!




If you can't really see it, you can actually walk across the top of the waterfall. A ballsier person might use it as Japan's best natural waterslide. I was content to wade around and take pictures.
