Snow world

When I climbed to high place in Mt. Ege, snow was appeared on the ground. It was increased when I approached to the top.
At the top, the ground was white. The wind was very very cold.
The height of Mt. Ege was only 593 m. But the whether was very different with the town. The coldness was very hard. But, I could enjoyed the situation.
My wife call me crazy when I told so after I went down the mountain.

Beautiful sunrise

I could see a beautiful sunrise from the middle height of Mt. Ege. Winter's sunrise was different with summer's one, I thought.
It was very very cold morning.

New head lamp's power

I woke up early in the morning and started to climb about 5:30 AM. One of the object of the climbing was check the performance of new head lamp.
As a result, the 350 lumen power was great. I could see around as if it was daytime. If I used 350 lumen power continuously, the battery would be wasted only for 2 hours. So, I selected the power to 100 lumen. It was enough power for walk in forest. I liked the new lamp.

Bar

After I left from climbing gear shop, I went to drink with my friend to Yokogawa.
At first, we ate Horumon which was a grilled organs. And we drank Scotch whisky in the bar in Yokogawa.
The bar in Yokogawa was my favorite bar. I can talk with my friend slowly and kindly there. Someday, I'll bring my wife there.

PETZL's ACTICK CORE

The max light power is 350 lumen. It was very powerful. My bicycle's light which I think to enough brightness is 200 lumen. So, it must be very very bright.
The tough with my head was very nice when I compare with my old one. It will not to be off.
But, there was no packing between the case and cover. It said that the class of resist water was IP4. It means that a water in daily life be covered. But, it must be damaged in hard rain. So, I have to use it carefully in the rain. It is a big loose point.
I'll use it for commute for a while. And I'll judge it can be used for climbing.

New gears

After I finished my job at the noon, I went to climbing gear shop in order to buy some gears.
They are head lamp, wallet, backpack cover and rubber of stock.
I bought head lamp because the old one which I had used 9 years was broken.
I bought rain cover for 30 litter backpack which be used for commute.
I bought rubber of stock because I loose it in North Alps in last summer.
I bought the wallet because it looked very cool for me in the shop.
Buying climbing gear is very interesting.

Morgenrot

Morgenrot is a word of German which means red color of sunrise. It was a word for climbing.
By the way, I watched a beautiful Morgenrot at the another side of the river when I was commuting. As I would have a drink in the evening, I walked for commute.
