April Strickland Episode 18

If I thought hiking Gassen Castle Ruins was intense, I was in for a rude awakening when I decided, on a whim, to "attempt" to hike one of the highest mountains in Japan, Mt. Daisen Summit. Situated in beautiful Tottori, Japan, what was originally planned as a solo challenge, turned into a team challenge when two of my friends decided to join me. Despite tapping out at 3 miles halfway up, not only did this mountain hike pull me in with its beauty and charm but convinced me to come back soon and really make it to the top. Challenge accepted!
