At 2,060m on the Happo-one ridge in Hakuba, Happo Pond is often called the observation deck of the Northern Alps. A gondola and two chairlifts lift you to 1,830m, and from there a rocky trail climbs another 230m along the open ridge.
On a still day the pond becomes a mirror for the mountains. Through the waist-level finder, the same scene appears again, small and quiet, framed in a square of glass.
That day the clouds kept moving over the peaks, paragliders drifted across the sky, and the slopes below were just beginning to turn gold.
八方池位于白马八方尾根，海拔 2,060m，被称为「北阿尔卑斯的展望台」。乘缆车和两段吊椅到海拔 1,830m，再沿开阔的山脊爬升 230m，就到了池边。
无风的时候，池面像一面镜子倒映着群山。从腰平取景器里往下看，同样的风景又出现了一次，小小的、安安静静地装在一块方形的玻璃里。
那天云一直在山顶上流动，滑翔伞从头顶慢慢飘过，山坡正开始泛黄。
