Nice Landscape

There were many large rocks near the top of mountain. I could see Hiroshima city and islands in Setouch sea.

Entrance of Mt. Madoga-yama

After I finished the proceeding of driving licence, I went to Mt. Madoga-yama. It was one of the famous mountain in Hiroshima pref. It had twin peak. It was first climbing about the mountain for me.

Speed climbing

I could reached to top of Mt. Ege from entrance of climbing road only in an hour. It was spent only 54 minutes. It was as fast as the record when my power was at the peak.
I got the old record more than 3 years ago when I'd climbed Mt. Hotaka. I didn't train enough in these days. All of my training was a weekend climbing only. My performance of body may be great more than I thought.

Mt. Ege

I climbed  Mt. Ege in the morning. I always enjoyed in holiday, if I climb mountain in the morning. If I don't do it, I had no satisfaction all day long.
It must be a best season for climbing. I could see many nice mountains in Hiroshima pref. such as Mt. Yoshiwa Kanmuri and Mt. Osorakan. I'd never climbed these mountains because they were far from my house. I'll have to drive for more than 2 hours until I'd reached the entrance of climbing road.

Forest road by bike

I went to forest road at north side in Hiroshima pref. by bike. It was there near the borderline between Hiroshima pref. and Shimane pref.

The road was very rough and many rocks and stones were there on surface of the road. It was to hard for my performance. So, it was not so interesting. Terrible was bigger then interst.

But, the nature in deep forest was very nice. During rest time, my friend and I were stayed beside stream.

A trouble had happened at the riding for my friend. Number plate of his bike was hidden when we went out from the forest road. He returned to forest road and searched it for a long while. But, he couldn't. As he didn't returned from the forest, I worried him to dropped in valley beside the road. So, I went back to forest road, too. And I searched him. Later, I found him comfortably.

We returned to Hiroshima city through narrow local road in order to not to be found by policeman.

Mt. Ege

I climbed Mt. Ege after a long interval.
Walking in the mountain was very pleasant in this season. I could enjoy the climbing.
My daughter brought my camera to travel which was event of her school. So, I photoed by mobile phone.

End of long climbing

At last, I'd reached to the exit of the climbing road. It was a hard climbing because of the knee trouble.
But, I got a big satisfaction for the succeed of the climbing. I had retired the climbing about a year ago. I always regret when I watched the mountains from the city for this 1 year. I would be able to see the mountains with satisfaction because I could conquered them. It was a nice climbing.
