A side-excursion on a 2014 trip to Minakami. Looking back down from a long climb up:

The famous Doai station. I saw this in a variety show before and there were lots of people visiting this station for its uniqueness and the amount of steps to climb ~

I was also there in 2014, mainly to hike up Mt Tanigawa. Here are some pics I took. Going back there next month for some more hiking in the area.

I've been going to do this for years, maybe next trip.

I'm pretty sure my beer gut wouldn't like those 486 steps.
