I worked at Jigokudani monkey park for 3 months researching their behaviour, and studied macaques in Japan for a year. I made some friends with guides at the park and others, and apparently monkeys had been spotted in completely different areas of Nagano bathing in peoples private hot springs, super far from the park. No one had them tagged so they weren't sure whether they were monkeys from the park or just random monkeys that had discovered the behaviour on their own, but nonetheless interesting. Japanese macaques do have a lot of interesting cultural behaviours; bathing, food washing, stone handling. Also, if you get the chance to go study in Japan for whatever reason, don't hesitate, it's amazing

I think this is one of my favorite videos. I'd love to go to see the sake vending machines and the monkeys in the mountains in winter. All of the snow falling was beautiful

FYI, this video's demonetized for unknown reasons - please give Chris your support by giving this whole thing a watch! EDIT: The KZbin demon has reconsidered and re-monetized the video...but don't you just wanna watch some monkeys?

Or head over to Patreon and enjoy lots of behind the scenes videos. You can cancel after one month if you need to, so it doesn't need to cost more than 2 dollars.

I've never been so close to crying just from watching a trip video. Lived in mountains since being born, but this is just breathtaking. I love every aspect of it, the station, restaurant, hot springs, sake. I can guarantee You, this video made me decide on visiting Japan one day. Thank You very much, the work done here is awesome!

Chris, my former Tokyo International University colleagues and I have a story about that terrifying train station. We all took a hike up Tanigawa and almost died. We should have known this would be the result when our trip started at that Station from Hell which was even creepier in 2018 when we were there. There were no kawaii items in the station, just dread. And oh btw there's a monument to all those who have died on Tanigawa not far from that train station. 😰
