富士山登頂 (その２) Climbing Mt.Fuji (part 2)

【休憩しながら、楽しくゆっくり登って来て…】


８合目（３２５０ｍ）まで来ても、まだ４人とも元気いっぱい♪

We all were still energetic to continue climbing when we got to the 4th hut (3250m).

 

 

【漢字でハチ～。 数字ででハチ～。】

 

【日本で一番高い缶コーヒー！(だと思う。。。)】
These are the most expensive cans of coffee in Japan! (I suppose...)




【いや～、いい空だ☆】
Look at this beautiful sky!


８合目から、さらに登ること１時間。

We continued climbing, and another 1 hour later...

 

【９合目に着いた！】
We arrived at 5th hut.


９合目の標高は、３４６０ｍ。

頂上までの高さは、あとたったの３００ｍほどになった。


The elevation at 5th hut is 3460m.
It means we have only 300m gap up to the summit.



みんな、さすがにちょっと疲れてはきたけど、まだまだ笑顔で登れる♪

心配していた高山病には、誰もなっていないようだし。


It's true we looked bit tired, but we could still climb with smile.
And good thing was no one seemed to get mountain sickness.



「これなら、絶対みんなで頂上まで行けるよ！」

"I think we can make it to the summit with all together."



正直、女の子二人には、登頂は厳しいんじゃないかと思っていたんだけど…

みんなで９合目まで来られたことで、そんな心配は吹っ飛んだ。


To tell the truth, I had thought it was hard for the female friends to climb up to the summit because of lack of energy.
But they climbed up to 3460m without any probrem.
It made me confident that we definately were able to stand on the top together.



【こりゃあ、みんなで最後までいけるね！】
We can make it!



【金剛杖の焼き印も、残りあとひとつだけ♪】
I had collected all the stamps on my stick so far.
It's only another one stamp left to be printed.


９合目から上を見上げると、頂上付近にいる人の動きも見え、

いよいよ頂上に近づいてきたことがわかる。


When I looked up, I was able to see people who were walking around the summit clearly.
Then I noticed we were at such close place to the summit.



あとちょっと～♪

Our goal was almost there!
