climbing Mt. Takao--alone

I got up at seven this morning.
What a beautiful day with no wind!

I felt happy, preparing breakfast with the radio on.
Suddenly I felt like climbing Mt. Takao and decided
to climb Mt. Takao alone.

When I climb Mt. Takao alone, I make it a rule to
climb it by Inariyama trail--the longest but the most
popular trail.

I left my apartment at 9:00 and arrived at Takaosan-guchi
Station at 10:30.
Then I walked to the start of Inariyama trail.



Be careful not to stumble over giant, spreading roots, karin!



There are several places like this.
It is very hard to ascend the stairs.



Hikers are relaxing at the top.



How happy I was to see glorious Mt. Fuji amid the mountains!





I walked 21921 steps today.
I had a wonderful Saturday.
