The Old Forest


A couple friends from the mainland came down to Yakushima this weekend and I toured them around the island. The above shot is from our first hike, through Yakusugiland.






My friend Yuri. Curtis is just visible in the first shot.






There's never any shortage of monkeys on the mountain roads.




















On the last day my friends and I hiked up to Miyanoura dake. This is the same 10 hour hike I did when I first got here. It's a tough hike but it wasn't nearly as hard as doing it during the hottest time of the year.

You got a great shot of the monkeys and Yakusugiland is just like I remember, so beautiful. Great photos. M
