Today’s picture is again from my treks into Mt. Takao. This picture was taken on the Inariyama Trail (稲荷山), which is probably the advanced course on the mountain. This part of the trail has you hop across stones to go upstream to reach the next part of the path. The only pinch occurs when people come from the opposite directions, and everyone has to hop onto different stones to avoid jumping into someone…resulting in both people getting wet and sliding down the brook, lol.

The next few posts will have pictures from my various climbs up Mt. Takao (高尾山). It’s a mountain easily accessible from Shinjuku station, and there are various trails to take and tons of wildlife to see. Popular with both tourists and Japanese. This picture is from the course most people take; although it’s paved, there are some steep spots.
