I just got back from camping/hiking in Nara. I went with some pretty serious climbers and I was a little freaked out before I went that I didn't have enough Samurai Spirit to make it to the end, not to mention a lack of proper footwear, but I plodded along in my New Balances right to the end! We camped friday night and got up at 3:30 am to start. The above picture is taken at about 8 am at the peak of the mountain, I think it was 1,729m above... sea level? I guess. It was so beautiful I feel like my picture is butchering the reality of it. This kind of scene is called 雲海 (unkai), sea of clouds.
