Did a full camping trip with friends to Japan, this was at Sekikawa. Also we didn’t realise to check for bear warnings untill after hiking at Aomori and Sekikawa.
Apperently had 9 attacks that month specifically near this spot. So could say we survived bear infested dangerous areas, with fools luck. Anyhow was amazing and would recommend, but definately check for warnings and prepare maybe with mace. As far as I know those Sunbears are pretty sketchy.
