Kaikoma - back!

Back from Kaikoma already - a day or so early - due to changing weather conditions.

I'm pretty tired so I'll put up a proper post in the next couple of days, but for now let me give you one small taste of what turned out to be a quite unusual, quite productive and at times rather surreal trip...

That's a dead tanuki (a large Japanese raccoon, basically) at a belay halfway up an ice/mixed route. Strange indeed.

Check back soon!
