I started this June 29th hike up Ryuso at 5:25 am. Reason being a guy had told me the day before that he usually started around 5 am. He seemed to like being the first one on the mountain and to get to the ridge when the deer were still out and about. I managed to be the first one up the mountain, but the deer had already chosen other places to hang out. Maybe should have started a half hour earlier.<\/p>\n

It was still raining a bit when I started and everything was pretty wet–which made the frogs eager\u00a0for strolls. This guy\u00a0was intent on not<\/em> hopping. A plumpily dignified stride was just the thing for him.<\/p>\n

“We.” You know, me and the frogs<\/em>.<\/p>\n
