Kamikochi: The Heart of the Japan Alps

I spent a day and a night recently in Kamikochi, high in the heart of the Japan Alps. The weather wasn't very good, but a bad day in Kamikochi is better than a great day at the office. I walked 22 kilometers up and back a river to enjoy the scenery.



I suprised a Japanese macaque with two babies beside the trail. They were so close - I could just about have reached out and touched them.
