Leg 4: 43.10 N, Ishikari, Japan to Muskegon, Michigan

I am following a latitude line east around the world. I would love to do it in person, but a very handy starting place is latlong.net. I typed in my home here in Manchester, Vermont, then started a simple scrolling cruise east along 43.10 N.

As I go, I jot down points of interest, places to return to and learn more about. I am sure I have missed many amazing places, but these are just communities and features that caught my eye at first glance.

When I start to get weary from all the places and geographical contours, I find a stopping point. I thought, for instance, that Leg 4 would get all the way back to Vermont from Japan, but instead I have stopped in Muskegon Michigan. So I suppose there will be a 5th leg of my initial online latitude exploration.

Below is a simple list- places that I will revisit when I do a next round of research into latitude 43.10N.

LEG 4:

Hokkaido University of Education, Japan

Sunahama Shrine

Iwamizawa Ski Area (City)

Maruyama Mountain

Minamifurano/Nemuro Main Line

Mount Sahoro- resort

Mt. Panke

Middle School:
