Saves as a new trip plan. The original stays as-is.
This 20 km route runs from Lake Towada to Kazuno, passing through Akita and Aomori. In the past 30 days, 5 bear sightings were reported within 5 km of the route. No reports were recorded in the past 7 days. The latest sighting was reported 2 weeks ago near Kazuno, Akita.
With activity this close, slow through forested stretches and stay alert at dawn and dusk when bears cross roads.

Post: A decorative ornament on the property was found broken, so I checked the security camera footage and identified the individual shown. (The ornament appears to have been gnawed or scratched and damaged.)
