Arrived at Oritate (折立) early in the morning by night bus, unstoppable rain from the beginning. Left the big backpack at Taro-daira goya (太郎平小屋) and climbed up. In a foggy, rainy day went up the summit and back to the hut in time before heavy rain, with thunderstorm and lightning. A no view day for me. Continued the following day for Suisho and Washiba by Kumonodaira trail (雲ノ平ルート).
