U4GM FH6 Location Guide for Kitayama Big Daisugi

[Blustery]

Getting lost in Ito is pretty normal, even if you've already spent hours clearing roads and ticking off landmarks. The Kitayama Big Daisugi challenge sounds simple on paper, but the game doesn't exactly hand you a glowing arrow and call it a day. If you're working on exploration progress, stacking FH6 Credits for new cars, or just trying to clear every photo objective in the region, this is one of those stops that's easier once you know the one visual cue that matters. Head to the northern side of Ito, on the eastern edge of the map, and use the airfield as your anchor point. From there, push northeast until you hit a dirt route cutting through heavy woodland. That's the road most players miss, mostly because it doesn't look important at all from a quick glance at the map.

Finding the cedar grove

Once you leave the paved area behind, keep following the trail through the trees and don't overthink it. You're not looking for a dramatic landmark at first. You're looking for a strange tree shape rising above the rest of the forest. The Daisugi cedars have that unmistakable look where multiple straight trunks shoot upward from a broader base, almost like one giant tree is holding up a cluster of smaller ones. It stands out more in motion than it does on the map, weirdly enough. A lot of players end up circling too far east or drifting back toward the coast, but the grove is actually closer to the central forest track than you'd expect. When you're in the right place, the blue map stamp for Kitayama Big Daisugi should appear, which is the game's way of confirming you didn't just stop at a random patch of trees.

How to register the photo

The photo requirement is forgiving, so don't make it harder than it needs to be. Pull over near the grove, open Photo Mode, and frame the cedars clearly in the shot. Your car doesn't need to be the , and in some cases it's actually easier if it barely shows at all. What matters is that the trees are visible enough for the game to identify the location. On controller, you can bring up Photo Mode with the D-pad, while keyboard players can jump in with a quick key press and snap the image from there. After the shot is taken, the location should be logged under Discover Japan and you'll get 100 points toward that rank. That's why these challenges are worth doing, even when they seem minor. They're fast, they count, and they save you from having to grind slower objectives later.

Why the rank matters here

Discover Japan isn't just a side tracker sitting in the corner for decoration. It feeds into bigger unlocks, and this specific landmark is tied to one of the better reasons to keep exploring. Just south of the Kitayama Big Daisugi marker, there's a smaller gravel turnoff leading to a barn. If you've already reached Master Explorer, that barn can reward you with the 1983 Nissan #11 Tomica Skyline Turbo Super Silhouette, which is the kind of find that makes poking around the map feel worthwhile. If the barn seems dead when you arrive, don't worry, you're probably just early. The rumor won't trigger before the top exploration tier, so the location can look empty even when you're standing right where the car should be. That catches a lot of people out, especially if they found the cedar grove first and assumed the barn would instantly be active too.

Final Thoughts

The cleanest way to do this is still to fast travel to Ito Airfield, switch into something that handles dirt without fuss, and drive northeast until that forest trail opens up. It's a short run once you know where to turn, and it works nicely as part of a wider Ito sweep if you're stacking other landmark shots on the same trip. The challenge itself is quick, the Discover Japan points are useful, and the nearby barn gives the area extra value if you're pushing toward Master Explorer or planning to buy Forza Horizon 6 Credits for the rest of your garage instead of wasting time on aimless driving across the map.
