My climbing pants for summer season was split during I climbed Mt. Johnen-dake. As it was happened at hip position, I could't know it until my son found and told me.
I used it by fixing some points and continued to use it. But, I decided to discard it.
I used it about 9 years. I bought it before I climbed Mt. Yari-gatake which was my first climbing in North Alps. I climbed many mountains with the pants.
I often climb mountains in Hiroshima. And I sometimes climb the famous mountains in Japan. Since August 16, 2010

So long ! North Alps
Buy and eat junk food
Famous Kappa bridge
Kappa bridge was famous as a spot of sightseeing in Kamikouchi. So, there were many sightseers who wore beautiful cloths.
They watched Mt. Hotaka-dake and other beautiful mountain on the bridge. It must be good when they compare with landscape in the city.
But, the landscape was not so great for us who watched them from over 2,500 m. They would never be able to see Mt. Hotaka from Mt. Jonen-dake.
We left there without staying on the bridge.

Zelt was clashed
During I walked in North Alps, my stick was broken. It could't be keep the length because the holding system was slipped. I used the stick for more than 10 years. And, it was cheap one. So, it was natural event. My stick was not used only for walk. It was used as a pole of zelt. So, the trouble was difficult.
I affixed tape at the holding system, and I construct zelt by it.
During I swept in zelt, the wall touch me. Because, the pole had been short during I swept, and tension of ropes were lax. But, I could sleep until the morning. I changed to tough more than I imagined during I continued to climb about 10 years.

After climbing
After we reached to camp site, we assembled tent and zelt. My son started to play with laugh. As the climbing had finished, he could leave from feeling nervous. I was so,too.
The climbing was tired, because I had to be care about him. Climbing with child was a hard job.
All I had to was eating dinner and sleep in Zelt at the night. I like such a time. I always be in full satisfaction at such timing.

Walk down in the mist
Top of Mt. Yake-dake
At the top, only a climber was there. He photoed us and left there later. So, all of people who stayed there were my son and I only. I like lonely summit.
Mt. Yake-dake is one of hundred famous mountains in Japan. It was my 21th one.
By the mist, there were no landscape. But, we could enjoy climbing.
After we had a rest for a while, we left there.

Lodge Kamonji
I decided to stay in lodge, because the Typhoon had come. It was too dangerous to walk 3,000 m ridge line under hard rain and wind.
Basically I don't stay in lodge, because I hate to stay with many other people. But, lodge Kamonji was special. I'd heard that the lodge was traditional style from Meiji period. It was rebuild from hunter's old home. I heard about the lodge and I yearned for it for a long while.
It was better than that which I'd imagined. Old building, kitchen and furniture etc. made me happy. We stayed beside the fire for a long while. Watching fire was very comfortable.
It must be good experience for my son and for me.

Lodge Tokusawa
There was a beautiful lodge before we reached to Kamikouchi. It was lodge Tokusawaen. My son said he wanted to eat something there. He must be bored with dry foods. He wanted to eat handy cooked foods. So, we entered the lodge and ate carry.
As it was near bus station, many tourists were there. We felt strangeness to them. But, the carry was delicious.
It was like a holiday for climber. I don't waste money at such place when I climb alone. The climbing was like playing host to my son.

Abandon Mt. Yari
I decided to abandon to climb Mt. Yari-gatake, because typhoon was coming and it already be raining. My son understood it smoothly.
As Yokoo was inside of web area, I checked a lodge which I wanted to stay and call to reserve. The lodge was near Kamikouchi. We started to walk to Kamikouchi in the rain.

Zelt in the rain
By the web news, typhoon would come near us in the next evening. So, I'd considered whether we should go to climb Mt. Yari or not. My son's main object of the climbing was climbing Mt. Yari-gatake. But, I can't select the dangerous way.
As I could't decide at the time, I stopped considered it at the time. I thought I should decide it at the tomorrow.
It will be rain and hard wind. So, I selected the ground which higher than other and near the tree.
It started rain in the morning. As I'd simulated and trained zelt for rain in Hiroshima's mountain, there was no trouble about it.

Lodge Yokoo
After a long down slope, we reached to Yokoo. At first, we planed to go to Yari-sawa through Yokoo. But, we decided to stay in Yokoo at the night, because we wasted power and the typhoon was coming.
I'd stayed in Yokoo about 8 years ago with my friend. I forgot many of Yokoo. But, I had some memories of Yokoo.
In Yokoo, we ate ice cream and can connect to the web by smart phone. Yokoo was useful town for us who returned from deep mountain's ridge line.

Tired at hard down slope
Walk under the great landscape
Peak of Mt. Choyari
Mt. Choyari
What a beautiful ridge line that is !!!
Mt. Johnen was big
When I turned back, I could see big Mt. Johnen-dake. It was very beautiful when I watched it from this side.
White road was clear on the ridge line. It was hard down slope. As my son don't good at walking on down slope, very long time was wasted. But, it was interesting walking because of beautiful landscape around us.

Walk in great landscape
My son walked on rock road with big backpack. When I see him at such situation, I think he have grown up.
Large mountains in front of him was Mt. Hodaka-dake. It is one of the most famous mountain for Japanese climbers. It was beautiful and looked harsh. I'd climbed it about 6 years ago. It was most difficult and hard climbing for my life.

South Alps and Mt. Fuji
Top of Mt. Johnen
When we reached top of Mt. Johonen-dake, only one climber was there. He photoed us and talked with me for a while.
At the top, simple board which be written the name of mountain. And a small shrine was there. The combination was like Mt. Yari-gatake.
Later, noisy old guys reached there. So, we left there and walked in order to reach Mt. Cho-gatake.

First stay in zelt
Beautiful sunset before typhoon
Pasta
Mt. Jonen beside the camp site
Udon in the lodge
In this climbing, I decided to eat foods in lodge sometimes for my son. I wanted to show my son many things such as lodge's foods, camping foods and behavioral diets etc. Because, every thing in deep mountains must be first experience for him.
Off course, the Udon in lodge Johonen was very delicious.

Mt. Yari appeared in front of my son
When we reached the mountain pass, Mt. Yari-gatake appeared in front of us. My son who always don't show his feeling said it's great. I felt so, too.
I watched such a landscaped almost every year. But, I can be moved by such landscape every time.
We stand in front of such mountains for a long while.
