October 5,
2006. We didn't get enough sleep from
the cold night at our campground
so this hike killed us. The trail from the "pee"
falls (Seryeompokpo) is gradual but soon after turns into
a ladder hike.
(2) This is the only part of the hike that may be a little
challenging.
It
was a steep hike all the way to the summit but we still made
it in 3hrs. It was a nice day out. Not a lot of people on the
mountain so we stayed at the top for a couple of hours and just
soaked as much fresh air as we could.
After
a nap, we started our descend. The forest at this time is
just beginning to change color. The view was quite interesting.
We got back to our campground in 2:30hrs. The steep stairs made
it a painful descent.
