When I was tidying up the drawers in my
room the other day, I found a journal of the mountaineering club of the company
where I used to work in my younger days. I was asked to join the club eagerly and
joined it without much consideration, even though I had never climbed a mountain
and had no prior knowledge. Now I think that it was because there were very
few women in the workplace, so they needed female members for cooking etc.
After work, I ran on the company ground.
And then, I climbed the Mt. Sanjusangen ( 842 meters high) located in Wakasa
Town, Fukui Prefecture, which was my first mountain climbing. Although I don't
remember very much, I remember that the large panorama overlooking the sea and
the refresh feeling when I arrived at grass fields in front of the top of the
mountain. According to the journal, lunch of the day was Mabo-tofu (Chinese
style tofu food), rice, fruits and lemon juice.
By the way, a co-worker who was in a
college mountaineering club wrote in the journal as the ultimate in
enlightenment of mountains as follows.
"Springwater in mountains, if you
drink it, you will get exhausted, if not, it will be the hell, you drink it and
exhausting is the way of mountaineering." (H.S)

Most of them were from other prefectures
and now they returned home.
The mountain
climbers were full of energy and gentle. I wonder if they are doing well.
