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.

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.
