Thanks Ralph, Hiking in Japan has just arrived and we are going through that.
Just a bit concerned about the weather at this time of the year. I guess if we
check with Tourist Info when we get there it will be OK.

Julie,

I have a mate from Germany who did a trip earlier this year to Japan and
wrote about it (in English).

Here is the link:

It is his travelogue.

one needs to skip a few pages ahead (or read them if interested - ;-) for
the Kumotori-san trip. The Lonely Planet Guide "Hiking in Japan" is a
terrific resource. One can get it off Amazon.

Hope it is of benefit.

Cheers

Ralph

Thanks Mike, I will give him a call and check out the website. We want to
guide ourselves rather than pay a company.
Regards Julie

Hi Julie,

I have a mate who runs an operation in Hokkaido called Hokkiado Outdoor
Adventures. His name is Pat O'Keeffe and his email is hoa@rafting-
<mailto:hoa%40rafting-hoa.co.jp> hoa.co.jp
they also have a website of the same name which you can google. My son Tyler

worked there all last summer and had a ball - he works in our Garden City
store 9315 3699 if you want to talk him more.

Cheers,
Mike Wood.
