Hike Kuratakeyama 倉岳山 (Medium-Hard)

Hiking course of about 4.5 hours, but we'll take some time for lunch and breaks.

Here's the rough schedule:
9:50 - Meet at Yanagawa station outside ticket gate. https://maps.app.goo.gl/7o1h5RdPBqskwfp16?g_st=ic
12:30 - Kuratakeyama peak and lunch
15:45 - Yanagawa station

Elevation change of ~700m and it will be a steep hike up so less experienced hikers might find this hard. Experienced hikers might find this to be medium or medium-hard. Don’t forget that it’s summer and you will be carrying more water so this hike will be more difficult than in the Fall/Spring.

Notes:

• No smoking and no bear bell(s).
• I have no survival or first aid skills and you are in charge of your own safety.
• I haven’t hiked this trail before, so please be patient.
• Bring about 1.5L-2L of water/soft drink and a lunch. Bring more water if you think you will need more.
• Weather can change unexpectedly, so dress in layers.
• You will get sweaty, so I recommend a towel.
• No meetup fee thanks to Liliya (group owner).
• If the weather forecast looks bad, I will cancel the hike.
