Day 34
Asamushi -> Mt Iwaki
Distance:87km
Rode thru Aomori city in the morning, famous for its festival of big (3-storeys big!) laterns in the summer, and snow (of which it gets more than any other city in the world) in the winter. Carried on south under clear autumn skies, and along old meandering roads that parallel the boring truck infested highways, and to the old castle town of Hirosaki. Then up (and up) to camp at the foot of conical Mt Iwaki, which towers over Hirosaki in the valley below.
