Mysterious mist

Near the entrance of climbing road, there was a lake. It made a mysterious mist. It was beautiful.

Young climbers

My son and his team mates checked the point on the map for race. It must be hard job in the rain. But, they laughed sometimes. They enjoyed it even in the rain. I could't enjoyed the climbing because of the weather.

Ko-sanbe-san

Down slope from the summit of Mt. Ko-sanbe-san was muddy. The mud made my legs easily slipped. My hip was hit sometimes. It was hard climbing.

Beautiful ridge line

Ridge line between Mt. Mago-sanbe and Mt. Ko-sanbe was very nice. If it was fine, it must be beautiful.
I was late about 30 minutes with children. So, I'd hurry up and could't see enough.

Mago-sanbe-san

At Mago-sanbe-san, I could't find branch to next peak. So, I through there and went straight. After I walked about 20 minutes, I noticed that I had walked on wrong road. Because, the down slope was too long.
I returned to summit of Mago-sanbe-san, and I found the branch to correct road. The mistake made me tired. I often do such mistake in mountain. I had to watch map more.
By the way, Mago-sanbe-san means grand child of Sanbe.

Mt. Ohira-yama

Third summit was Mt. Ohira-yama. It was in deep mist.
In these years, I am using umbrella. When it was no hard wind, it was very nice. When I wear the rainwear,  I feel hot and high humidity. So, I don't want to wear it.
Using umbrella was taught by old lady who I met in Mt. Houou-san about 3 years ago.

Summit beside TV antenna tower

At the summit of Mt. Mesanbe, there were some TV antenna tower. Basically I don't like such summit. But, I understand that the summit must be a good position to get micro wave for TV.
By the way, Mesanbe means that female of Sanbe-san.

Beautiful forest

The forest was very beautiful. The mist made the forest more beautiful and mysterious.
In the rain i forced me to enjoy watching forest during the climbing.

First summit "Osanbe"

I reached the one of the summit of Mt. Sanbesan "Osanbe". Osanbe means male of sanbe-san.
It was one of 200 famous mountain in Japan. So, it must be a very good mountain. But, I could't feel the goodness because of rain and mist. There were no landscape from there.

Climbed Mt. Sanbe-san with son's team

My son and his team mate will join the race for high school students in next weekend. It will be held at Mt. Sanbe-san in Shimane pref.
As a train, he went there and trained today. I brought them by my car. It was far away from my home. Driving was hard job.
In the rain, they and I started to climb.

Poison moth

After I down from Mt. Ege, My left hand damaged by poisonous warm of moth. It made me hard itching. It made me difficult to sleep for some days.
In this season, I had been so some times. About some years ago, it appeared to all surface of my upper body. And, I went to hospital.
The enemy's name was a kind of moth "Cha-doku-ga". The name's meaning was brown poisonous moth.
I decided to stop climbing Mt. Ege-san in August in every year.

Met some climbers

I met old climber who I'd often met in Mt. Ege-san. He was a nice guy. His talking was very interesting for me. He said he had been 80 years old in some days ago.
I want to be a old guy who can climb like him.
It was a nice climbing.

Damaged by typhoon

Many woods were fallen over by hard wind of typhoon. At the narrow road, it was difficult to over it. They showed that the wind of typhoon was great.

Summit

It was very nice climbing. I understood again that I like climbing and Mt. Ege-san.
Breeze is nice !

Sunrise from Mt. Ege-san

After a long interval, I climbed Mt. Ege-san.
I don't climb mountain for a while after long climb in every summer. It was first climbing after I climbed Mt. Youtei-zan in Hokkaido in August 26.
I could see beautiful sunrise.
