Kogashiyama
Kogashiyama is the highest moutain in Utsunomiya. Only 583m.
I was asked my firiend to climb Mt. Nantai with French climber as an Interpreter/Guide a couple months ago. Mt. Nantai is 2,486m high and there is Okunoin-shrine on the summit which I have never ever seen it, therefore I got the job. Unfortuntately I could not accomplish my job due to my health condition.
Now you understand why I am talking about 583m mountain. Yes, I started to train myself to climb high mountain with my clients without hesitation. Although only 583m mountain is not so easy for the beginner. I have learned I need more physical training before climb Mt. Nantai next year. We can climb Mt Nantai from May to October.

Hi, Jack-san, it is so great that you keep training for mountain climbing ! I myself has no energy nor vigour like you do, but I am considering taking a special programme to get a certificate of mountain tour escort which is supplied by the tour service school that I graduated from last year as you know.
