Kitami Mountains (北見山地, Kitami-sanchi) is a mountain range of Hokkaidō, Japan. Unlike much of the rest of Japan, the Kitami Mountains are not very seismically active.[1]
The Kitami Mountains are north of the Ishikari Mountains and east of the Teshio Mountains. A depression separates the Kitami Mountains from the Yūbari Mountains.[1] The highest point in the Kitami Mountains is Mount Teshio. Mount Teshio sits atop the Wenshiri horst.[2]
