• Mt Yōtei > Mt Fuji

    June 23 in Japan ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C

    - Took off to the longest and steepest climb of the tour (and our life) so far- PB territory! 🤠

    +70 km ride
    ~1400 hm climb
    + 4:45 h in the saddle

    - turns out Hokkaido turns foggy and fresh and even snowy in the mountains (10-15 degrees with a breeze)
    - hiked through a marsh during our lunch break
    - visited a dairy farm and had some cake
    - decided to cut the route and head straight for Sapporo
    - slept at a deserted camp site
    Still no bears…(eventhough/because we come prepared with bells, wissles and spray?!)
