Training Report - Mt.Teine 6




Dr.K and Tesseract participated in this training. It was about minus 7 degrees Celsius on the Mt.Teine.

We are crossing a brand new bridge. Its construction was achieved the previous month.

Such a beautiful day! We can see the summit of the Mt.Teine clearly.

During the descent, it started to snow.

The snowfall got stronger in the blink of an eye.

The visibility went down to several dozens metres due to a strong snowfall. In addition, the snow was very sticky to the face and our faces were freezing. Fortunately Dr.K did bring a face cover but Tesseract didn't.

We did Switchback Descent for the first time in the history of this site.

Crossing the new bridge again.

The snow on the road was half compacted and half muddy. Moreover, everything was white because of the snowfall, almighty whiteout. Therefore we could nothing distinguish. The descent was extremely difficult. Tesseract who had taken a lot of risks in this bad condition won the descent with about five minutes time gap in total (we did switchback descent and stopped two times for photographing).
