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.
