At the top

At the top, we ate miso soup. In this season, I always bring hot water in bottle. And I make soup or instant noodle. It's a good event in mountain in this season.
After we enjoyed good landscape, we left there and went down the mountain.

Mt. Ege with son

After a long interval, I climbed Mt. Ege with my son. As he join the climbing club in his junior high school, he often train in mountain near his school.
So, he climbed fast more than I. young power is great. I felt happiness and mortification.
We may climb some mountain in North Alps together in next summer.

Matusyama

Matsuyama was a town where I'd stayed during I was a student. The friend was a friend who was met me during we were student. We played and studied there. So, the town was a special place for us. We walked in the town, and watched a place where we had played, eaten and stayed, etc.
We ate breakfast and lunch at where we had often eaten. Some place we had used was closed. I felt 20 years was long time.

In the rain

When the ferry reached to Imabari, it was rain. Raining is worst happening for bike. So, I couldn't enjoyed during I rode bike.
After we watched the beach in Baishinji, we left bikes beside the station near the beach. And we went to Matsuyama by train. Transportation by train in the rain was very comfortable.

Through Islands

I went to Matsuyama by bike through Tobi-shima islands with my friend. The first ship start from Okamura island at 6:40. So, we started about 4:00 AM from Yano.
As it was dark especially in islands, Riding bike was that I felt dangerous. But, the beside sea in the morning was very nice.

Blue sky at Mt. Ege

As the sunrise was very brilliant. So, I couldn't photo to eastern side of the top. So, I photoed to western side today.
After I rested on the rock of top, some old climbers appeared. And I could enjoyed talking with them. it was nice morning.

Blue time

Before sunrise, color of forest changed from black to blue. I like the time. The reason why I often climb from early in the morning was that I want to sea the color.
Many animals escape from me in the forest early in the morning.

Enjoy commuting

I enjoy commuting by bicycle in these days. Before I reached to my office in the morning, I stop at Ujina port and drink can coffee beside the ship and islands. It was a good time.
Muscle which be used by bicycle is different which by climbing. So, I have a muscle's pain in these days. But, it is good, too.

Commute by bicycle

I commuted by bicycle in last evening and this morning. It was more easy than I imagined before I'd done it.
I could reached to my office only in 40 minutes. When I commuted by bike, it spend from 20 to 30 minutes. So, it was not so late.
I have a light muscle's pain now. And I felt hunger before lunch. But, I feel nice now. Moving body is always good to my heart.

Fine day

I climbed Mt. Ege in this morning. It was a very fine day after a long interval. I climbed mountains under the rain in these times.
As it was fine, it was easy to walk in mountain and it was very interesting. I met many climbers in the mountain.
I could sea many mountains which were there at far away. Mt. Yoshiwa-kanmuri, Mt. Osorakan and mountains in Yamaguchi pref. etc. It was very nice climbing.
But, I forgot to bring camera. So, I photoed by mobile phone.

Mt. Kannon

After I downed from Mt. Kannon, I through the big bridge and landed on Island Omishima. I had a rest there for a while. I photoed myself with the big bridge and Mt. Kannon.
After I bought a gift for my family, I went back to my home.

Real top

Peak of Mt. Kannon had not a landscape. There was only a triangle point. Top which have no landscape is not interesting. So, I returned to bike after I had a rest for a short while.
But, I conquered a top of one of the famous mountain in Hiroshima pref.

Fake top

After I passed some peaks, I could reach to the peak. It was very easily to reach there more than I'd imagined.
There were many board which be written the name of mountain and the height, etc. So, I thought there was a peak. But, there was not real peak of the mountain.
At first, I thought I would return to my bike. But, I thought I want to walk to shrine which was there near the peak.
I found a real peak during I walked to shrine. Many climbers must be cheated on by the first board. I was lucky to find real peak fortunately.

Misty forest

I don't hate misty mountain, because it seems to be mysterious. I remembered the ridge line of Mt. Houhou in South Alps.
By the way, one of the name of peak of Mt. Houhou was Kannon. It was same name with the mountain which I climbed then. It was coincidence.

Mountain pass Izuri

From the mountain pass Izuri, I could walk to Mt. Kannon or Damn Nakano. Off course I select the road to Mt. Kannon.
As it was misty, I could't see landscape from there. If it was fine, I would be able to see Seto-uchi sea's islands.

Climbed in bush

After I drove bike near the entrance of climbing road, I started climb. There were many bush and spider's web on the climbing road near the entrance. And the grand was easily to slip because of the mad. So, I could't enjoy climbing at first. I wanted to retire the climbing. But, I continued it.

Rain on the sea

I like to ride on ferry when I travel to somewhere. But, when I was there in ferry on the sea, it started to rain. In these climbing, it always be rain. I felt bad feeling.
Before the ferry reached to port of island, I wore the rain wear beside the bike.

Rode bike early in the morning

I woke up in 4:00 am, and rode bike to port Sunami in Mihara city. In order to climb Mt. Kannon on Island Ikuchi-jima.
I thought the first ferry would start in 6:30 by inter net. But, it was 7:10. So, I had a rest for a while in port Sunami, and ate breakfast which I bought in seven-eleven.
Octopus ball was soled from 10:00 in the port. Octopus was famous food in Mihara. So, I wanted to eat it. But, I had to leave there. I want to eat it someday.

Clunk

I disassembled a clunk of bicycle today. In these days, I dried to disassembled it by normal tools in my company. But, I could't. So, I bought a special tool for it by Amazon, because the tools was not expensive.
I could disassembled it easily by the tools. And I washed around there. And, I measured the dimension around bottom bracket.
The system of the dimension is very complicated. So, I might missed the selection of bottom bracket.

Climbed with umbrella

Old couple who I met at Mt. Houou said that using umbrella in mountain was very comfortable under some situation.
So, I tried it. It was very nice more than using rain wear, because I didn't felt humidity. It must be difficult to use it on ridge line in hard wind. I'll often use it in the mountain from today.

Mt. Ege in the rain

In rainy day, Mt. Ege was decorated by cloud. It was very beautiful.
As it rains every day in these weeks. So, I decided to climb even if it was rain.
