Oh wow - you're way out there, huh! I lived in central hokkaido. The hiking is spectacular - Daisetsuzan, Shiretoko, or one of the lesser known hikes, like Kogane-dake, Uryu-numa...or Yotei-zan.

here's an article I wrote about hiking in Hokkaido -

Hey, which prefecture is your island part of? I was a JET in Hokkaido for 2 years...still miss parts of the life there.

I'm technically part of Tokyo prefecture, but it's about a 300 km trip to the mainland. I really want to get up to Hokkaido before I leave. Any recommendations? Are you still in Japan?
