| Comments: | A great day for a hike. Several
new hikers came along and they all seemed to enjoy the trip. Three snakes
were spotted and two monkeys. Overcast skies made the view from the top
of Mt. Tado limited (on a clear day you can easily see Nagoya Station).
From the top of Mt. Tado we decended using a hiking trail. There was an
option to take a road down but everyone was feeling genki so we went on the more difficult trail. |
