B-29 bombing missions to Hokkaido Island

Greeting all,
Seeking any record of B-29 bombing missions on the most northern island of the Empire.
There was this photo recon mission flown from Guam on 26 June 45 which is of interest.

I thought that I'd read that this was followed up by B-29 strike force missions to Sapporo and a couple other large cities but I can find nothing in my XXI BC Tactical Missions Report file documenting any missions to Hokkaido.
Hoping someone here might have more complete records for XXI BC and Hokkaido. I appreciate any help, thanks in advance.
