Day 16
Asahi-dake
Hiked to the top of 2290m Asahi-dake, past picture postcard ponds, carpets of moss and wild flowers, vents spewing sulphurous gas and the now familiar hordes of red dragon flies, then literally slid down the other side and around to dip our feet in a natural hot spring bubbling straight up into a stream. This area, so open and spacious, reminds me more of Tibet or images of Alaska than any I associate with Japan. Tonight the Milky Way cuts a broad swath across the cold summer sky.
