Overview: In this episode, we explore Biei Forest, located at the foot of the Taisetsu mountain range. Experience the power of the great nature, destroyed and built up countless times by volcanic eruptions. Our program host will step into the forest to observe signs of this destruction and rejuvenation up close, and also encounter something rare: a tiny patch of broadleaf trees growing in a dense forest of conifers. You can also enjoy rare footages that reveal the truly unique nature born of volcanic mountains, and the secrets of the mysterious cobalt-blue pond.
