[Part 1] 27. Hiking up 백양산

I almost died today… thank goodness I didn’t bring along my DSLR again this time round because I would have probably damaged it on my way down the mountain. I kind of crawled down at some point and grabbed many trees too. Wyatt called me a “tree pervert” -.- 뭐야
It’s always the same: going up is all about stamina and fitness while coming down is all about one's state of mind and overcoming the fear of falling down.

The route up the mountain is just behind Global Town so I guess I should go hiking regularly so that I won’t be as noob as I was today. I went up with 3 of my classmates at 5.30pm and we were back by 6.30pm.
See how rocky it got? Coming down was no joke.

The view near the top of the mountain was beautiful though. Next time, I/we’ll take the easier route to the other side of the mountain where there is some viewing point at the summit. I should definitely go hiking again when the leaves turn red/yellow. It’s officially autumn now!
Filled up my bottle with spring water on my way down
Much thanks to Wyatt for helping me down! 
Dinner for tonight
