At approximately 5:10 a.m. on May 31, 2026, near the Otstuden Falls area within Hachioji Castle Ruins in Motohachiōji 3-chome, Hachioji City, there was a report of a bear growling. Since a bear was also sighted at the same location yesterday, please refrain from going out in the vicinity, and if you see a bear, call 110 from a safe location.

There was one Asiatic black bear (Tsukinowaguma) on the stairs descending from the rest/interaction area toward the Takao direction. It appeared to be large in size.

While descending the Inariyama course during trail running, I heard a loud rustling as if an animal was pushing through the bushes on my front left. When I looked toward the sound, I saw what appeared to be a black animal—likely a bear—running away quickly within about 50 meters. Although I was wearing sunglasses, it looked about 1–1.5 meters long, so I believe it was a bear. I had been running downhill with bear bells, so I think it noticed human presence and hurriedly fled. I didn’t have time to stop and take a photo, and the location is approximate. I was measuring distance by GPS as I ran, and it was just past 2 km from the summit, but I roughly identified the spot by comparing with someone’s recorded track on YAMAP. There may still be some margin of error. I posted this because there was a sighting reported yesterday at Yakoin.

While taking a break at a peak with a bench, I heard rustling in the bushes behind me and wondered if there was a wild boar, so I watched, and a much larger and black animal than a wild boar appeared from the east side of the trail and was walking. When I thought it might start running, another one came out and descended the western hillside. Given the color and the thickness of the legs, I don’t think there’s much chance of a misidentification. I don’t know if it noticed me, but there was no sign that it showed any interest in humans.
