Yugure Yama

The Twilight Mountains were smaller than Seikitsu sano Yama no Oi and covered the southwestern half of Crab lands. The mountain range was tough and rocky, littered with Crab defenses. There were many passes through the mountains, but most were garrisoned or booby-trapped, Roleplaying in the Emerald Empire (First Edition), p. 240 Game Master's Guide - Second Edition, p. 56 Rokugan - Campaign Setting, p. 170 Legend of the Five Rings : Third Edition, p. 305 as well as being commonly patrolled by Hiruma Scouts Emerald Empire, p. 12 and Toritaka Phantom Hunters. Secrets of the Crab, p. 20
== Travel ==
The main pass through the mountains, Kaiu Roka, was one of the few ways travellers could arrive in Crab lands unmolested. That was if they had announced their presence to the Crab first. 
== Settlements ==
The Twilight Mountains were known for two things: iron and jade. Way of the Minor Clans, p. 110 Settlements were sparse due to rumors that the mountains were haunted, but the wealth of iron continued to draw some people. The morose and evil feeling that residents sometimes felt was similar to the Shadowlands, but the mountains were not tainted. 
The northern-most areas of the range supported a large number of tea plantations, and the bulk of the Empire's tea supply came from the Crab lands.

The Kaiu controlled the area surrounding the great wall and most of the Twilight Mountains in the bargain. This spectacular mountain range dominated the Hida provinces' northewestern border. Though the mountains fell closer to the Kaiu and Toritaka provinces, they were technically the Hida family's domain. Secrets of the Crab, p. 19
The Yugure Mountains ran from the Kaiu provinces of Hokufuu and Yoake in the north, through the Hida provinces of Ishigaki and Ishibei and the whole of the Hiruma provinces. Secrets of the Crab, p. 96
