Mt. Ai-no-dake (間ノ岳)
and Mt. Shiomi-dake (塩見岳)
Climbing Schedule
On this Sept. 1996 trip,
I set personal Japan climbing records
for total hiking distance (43 km), total hiking time (29 hrs.), hiking
distance in 1 day (21 km), hiking time in 1 day (>14 hrs.), and
net elevation
gain
(2400m). And it’s interesting to note that even now, 15
years later, and
after having climbed all of the 25 highest mountains in Japan,
those records
are
still intact.
Below you will see my climbing schedule, trail distances, and
elevations
for this Mt.
Ai-no-dake (間ノ岳) and Mt. Shiomi-dake
(塩見岳)
trip. I hope you will find some of the info helpful.
