Yamanashi, Japan - Jan 26-27

HydroRaven, his girlfriend and I spent a night up near Mt. Kuratake in Yamanashi. The next day we walked the ridge, had lunch on the summit and headed back down to Yanagawa station.


Climbing up and over rocks, plenty of rocks.


It was a short hike from the trail head and we started looking for a place to camp. HydroRaven spotted an awesome site after passing a few.
