On July 19th, we had seven guests who are four young ladies and two young men from Philippine and their Japanese friend. The day before yesterday, typhoon which hit the southern Japan had gone to north. So we had a clear sky. But very hot and humid because the typhoon brought hot air and much rain to Japan. For ascent, we got on chair lift it took 12 minutes to middle of Mt.Takao, during the ride, we enjoyed the summer gentle winds.
Almost of them are first time to come to mt. Takao. Along with no-1 trail, we guided prospective view point of Kasumi-dai where we could see Tokyo Sky Tree it's elevation is 634 meters.
Do you know the altitude of mt. Takao. Yes, it is 599 meters. Tokyo Sky Tree is higher than mt. Takao.
Then we walked along N0-1 trail, explaining Octopus cedar tree, Shimenawa-ornament, Joshinmon-gate, Stone monument of "take no life", male path and female path, meaning of 108 worldly desires, nest of giant flying squirrel, young cedar tree offering plaque,Shitenoumon-gate, Niomon-gate, main hall,gongendo-hall and so on.
We arrived the summit around 12:40, then took lunch. After then one of our member gave us a picture story show which warned us that failure might happen when we felt at ease.
Accordingly for descent we were very careful so that we did not slip on stepping stones and tree's root to get the foot of mountain safely. The guests were very friendly, then we shook hands with each of them. Maybe I might not see them again.
I remembered the phrase of Japanese tea ceremony, "treasure every meeting, for it will never recur."
