Mt. Zao

Here I am sitting on a rock on top of Mt Zao, a famous mountain close to Sendai, Japan where I was stationed. We took a train and a bus to get to the little town where we stayed in an old, Japanese hotel. There wasn't much to see on top of the mountain in the middle of summer but we did see a lot of large boulders and metal posts that must have been buried in winter so the people of skis could get past them.
