I realized I haven't posted my CaM report for May yet, which I did on May 5. I'm now at 81 consecutive months. 185 km with 1675 m of elevation gain in the mountains around Okutama west of Tokyo.



I climbed the infamously steep Kazahari rindo (forest road) and then visited the remote Nippara valley, home to both some lime stone caves and a huge quarry that feeds the Okutama cement factory via a 10 km system of tunnels, bridges and trolleys pulled by steel cables. The weather was beautiful. I love all the fresh green.
