Yesterday was a pretty nice day, wasn't it? Over here, it was nice enough to go on a little trek adventure, which I did.
Here's how it went..
Picture 1: See the top of the highest mountain in that picture? That's where I'm going. Only 2 more miles to reach the bottom...
Picture 2: Finally next to it. Damn, it's overgrown around here! There's not even a trail anymore. Good thing I brought my machete. :thumbsup:
Picture 3: So Picture 2 was taken from that little trail down there. I'm 20 minutes up the mountain, about half way there.
Picture 4: Ah finally, my favorite part! From now on it's all rock climbing in order to get to the very top. I just love that part...too bad I fell and got all bloody though!
Pictures 5 & 6: That's what the view looks like from up there. Beautiful, isn't it? Lots of training, meditation and smoking rituals take place up there. :jointsmile:
Finally, as I start going down the moutain, the sun sets down and the flight of the ravens begin. See those black spots in the sky? Those are crows...there's literally hundreds of them flying north east EVERY night. Always the same route. I'll have to follow them to see where they actually go sometimes!
Well that wraps it up! Long live spirits of the Yamabushi. :cool:
Oh, here's the link to the pictures
