Hi there, I wanted to give you early access to my next video, the one on Tokyo Banana. The video is in a similar vain to my article from last year, but I added a whole lot more. I hope you enjoy it!
We’ve been getting some snow here in Yamagata, but nowhere near as much as usual. On the 10th, I’ll be heading out to Mt. Yudono again with Shida-san for the Lunar New Year pilgrimage. It’s about 90 minutes snow-shoeing one way, and last time we got some pretty spectacular views that you would have seen in this video:
I’m hoping to at least get some similar shots so I can make a video out of it, but you can expect some more photos at least!
Then in the middle of February I’ll be going to Toyama Prefecture again to take a mountain first aid course, this time it’s the winter version. I’m really looking forward to brushing up my first aid skills, but also learning about the specific challenges hiking the mountains in winter can and does entail.
Ka kite ano,
Tim.
