Climbing a Few of Japan's 100 Famous Mountains: Volume 3: Mt. Gassan
()
About this ebook
Not everyone summits mountains and not everyone is capable of capturing the experience in stunning photographs. Daniel and Kazuya have done just that! Join them in Yamagata Prefecture, Japan and view through their camera's eye the amazing scenery of Mt. Gassan (Moon Mountain). They've captured this mountain in unique photos. On both occasions that they summited, they spent the night in the hut which is available for use during the summer months and were, therefore able to capture the most amazing sunset and sunrise colors that you've probably ever seen. Mt. Gassan is the highest peak in the Dewa Sanzan trio of sacred mountains. Being a sacred mountain it is famous for the shrine at the very summit. It lies between Mt. Chokai to the north and Mt. Asahi to the south. No matter where you are in the world you'll savor this one-of-a-kind armchair adventure. You're sure to find a favorite among their sixty-three photographs and enjoy reading their accompanying informative comments on each of their climbs here.
