Rugged Goryu-dake! (五竜岳) (28th challenge to 100 mountains)

Aug. 15th ~ 16th, 2015

We wanted to start earlier, but started late just as I'd feared.

Taking three lifts, arrived at Happo-ike-sansou.
There were many alpine flowers at Happo-ridge.
I was looking forward to seeing beautiful scenery of Hakuba-sanzan, projected on the surface of Happo-pond, but I couldn't see that due to the dense fog. Damn it.
We could see Hakuba-yarigatake in place from the ridge.
We went up under the hot sunshine, came across the Ohgi-ravin with the perpetual snow.
We had a rest there. Many climber did like us.
After going up on gravel road, scree and so on, finally we'd reached Karamatsu-chojo-sansou.
After then, we reached the top of the Karamatsu-dake!
Next, we headed to Goryu-dake.
The path to Goryu-dake was very exciting because we had to pay attention to the rough road.
It's like an athletics!
After we were going along the ridge among in the fog, Goryu-sansou had suddenly appeared. We felt relieved at that time. ε-(´∀`*
At Goryu-sansou, I bought T-shirt, printed with the words 'I love the mountains and Sake'. It's very famous for climbers. Actually I don't like sake so much. My wife also bought the T-shirt with different color. The T-shirts was made by Monbel and quite functional. 

The supper at Goryu-sansou was curry! Very very delicious! (゜д゜) I had another helping of cully.
We enjoyed seeing starry sky and went to bed. We made a reservation in advance, so we could stay on the second floor. The first floor was like chaos, so I recommend to make a reservation in advance.

In the next day, we reached at the top of Goryu-dake!
We could see Tsurugi-dake, Tate-yama and Yarigatake! It was really great scenery! 

This mountaineering became very impressive!
