* Putting this thing aside... Climbers - me - Cliff the husband - Tomoe, a Kishu dog (13 years old) - Aisu, a Kai dog (3 years old) We left home around 8 p.m. on Friday night and arrived at Sakubadaira parking lot at midnight. We stayed in the car that night. Since the restroom at the Sakubadaira parking lot is currently under renovation, we used the restroom across the street from the trailhead. We woke up at about 6:00 a.m. as the other climbers started to park there. Since we had relatively short active time for this plan, we had plenty of time to warm up in the morning and left around 7:00 am. We took a path to Yabusawa, although it was a big detour around the Ikkyu saka branch. This is the first time for us to stay overnight in a tent at the top of a mountain. I packed more than my usual overnight stay in a hutt. I packed a solid 50ℓ backpack, instead of my usual 40liter lightweight backpack. This time my family was with me, so I paced myself and we went up slowly...
