Relaxing Snowy Drive Through the Japanese Mountains

Yamanashi Route 411:
MAP: maps.app.goo.gl/QFGmQWFxjjhve...
Driving into the mountains from the mountain village of Tabayama. The snow was melting lower down, but at higher altitudes, snow remained on the ground. The road is well maintained, so there is no snow on the road itself.
The car is a little Kei off-roader, the Mitsubishi Pajero Mini with a 660cc Turbo engine. It's perfect for questionable conditions like this, and is very reassuring in these environments. You can hear the turbo quite clearly in some sections. Finally, apologies for the squeaky wipers near the end. It seems the old wipers finally gave out.
