The Harsh Winter of the Sea of Okhotsk Coast

Our stage today is located in eastern Hokkaido, the winter of the Sea of Okhotsk coast. It is a very precious place where drift ice can be seen in Japan. Our host Charlotte Kate Fox will attempt “drift ice walking” with the help of a guide. It is an activity unique to this area where participants wear a dry suit and walk on the drift ice as well as float in the ocean with it. We will also present rare footages such as that of a frozen waterfall that can be seen from the shore and the courtship of water birds.
