Percentage of review submissions]Total 3450代Month of posting: 2025/07During the trek, I seemed to be getting dehydrated and our guide gave me some salt to get me out of my need to drink water. I guess they decided it would be better to continue on to the Jomon Cedars before it got too crowded, but the pace was too fast for me on the outward journey, and it was so hard that I could not keep up with the guide and the young companions, and I was flickeringly ready to retire. I apologize for the inconvenience. Thanks to this, we were able to have lunch at a covered place and were served coffee and bread at a pavilion on the return trip. We also appreciated the miso soup at lunch time.
