French couple

At the top of Mt. Nakadake, only a couple of foreigner were there. So, I ask him to photo me with nameboard. Of course, I asked in English. He got it very friendly.
He said they were French. And, I said them I went from Hiroshima. He knew Hiroshima as a city where the atomic bomb blasted. His wife (or girl friend) was very white and beautiful. She looked like French doll. I was realy envious of him.

Mt. Nakadake

There was a nice landscape at the top of Mt. Nakadake.
But, this photo's angle was my mistake. I wanted to photo of top of Mt. Nakadake. This photo's main is not Mt. Nakadake, but Mt. Yar. In North Alps, Yari always be conspicuous around there.

Mt. Minamidake

Top of Mt. Minamidake was there near the campsite. I reached there easily. It must be easy climbing on that day when I compare with the previous day.
About 2 years ago, I thought I want to climb Mt. Minamidake, Nakadake and Obamidake. But, I couldn't. So I have special feeling to these mountains. At last, I climbed Mt. Minamidake.

Dinner

I ate Donburi and ramen at the night. In the mountain, I always eat such a food. I can cook easily and they can make energy in my body.
In the green pack, white rice was there. I could eat delicious rice by only to put boiled water in it. The volume was enough for dinner and breakfast. So, there was no need to make rice in every morning.
But, I had a snoot full of such a food at the third night. At the next climbing, I'll bring another nice food.

Minamidake camp site

After I through dangerous area, I reached to lodge Minamidake. At first, I planned to walk to next lodge at the day. But, I was tired by hard course, and the time had been late. So, I decided to stay at this camp site.
As I decided to stay here, Climbing Mt. Nishihotakadake had been impossible. It mean that conquering 4 Hotakadake had been failed.
As alternative plan, I planned to climb Mt. Minamidake, Mt. Nakadake and Mt. Obamidake.

Hasegawa Peak

This is Hasegawa peak which is famous as a dangerous and hard course, too. If I slipped only one step, I would drop down to the depth of deep valley. I was afraid and walked there slowly.
At such course, almost everyone had a light backpack. But I had 20kg backpack. So, it was difficult to take balance at the narrow space.
