Once a wise man twice a fool....I'm a fool :) My most humbling experience was making it to the top, exhausted but happy only to see a jogger reach the top, look at his smart watch briefly and start back down again. Jerk.

Oh hey, I met that guy. He stopped his run down to point me back to the trail after I wondered off having lost the markers somewhere on my evening ascent between the 7th and 8th station on the Subashiri trail. Made a joking comment about his not staying for the sun rise -- he already caught it on his first run up earlier that day...

Was thinking of that saying… I too would like to climb it (but just the once).

Maybe they started at a hut on 9th station :)
