Place: Mt. SangHakBong (834m) and Mt. MyoBong (879m) in SongNiSan National Park, BoEun, ChungBuk Province.
Partners: 45 AhToSan members including Bernardo and his 6 colleagues at KASI (Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute).
Course: Yonghwa Hotspring – MaeBong – SangHakBong – MyoBong – YoJeokAm – SaNaeRi Parking Lot (About 12 km, 6-7 hour hike)
It was the first hike in September. The mountains are in the famous SongNiSan National Park, yet the couse was not very popular, so we could enjoy less crowded, yet, interesting rocky hiking.
The seats of AhToSan chartered bus were full with reservation again. I am especialy happy that my Mexcan friend, Bernardo brought 6 young fellow workers from his institute, KASI, including Masashi, a Japanese, and Po from Thailand.
Since the hiking location is close from Daejeon, we began walking even before 9 a.m.
We began walking from the village center near Yonghwa Hotspring. The trail was a gentle slope, and there were peper field on both sides.
There were “commelina communis,” commonly known as the Asiatic dayflower. The name of this flower in Japanese is “Tsuyukusa” or “dew flower,”similar idea of English common name. But its Korean name is “Tak-wi-chang-pul” which means “chicken’ long grass.” It may look like the head of rooster, and they grow very long. I saw a banch of this flowers on the middle of steep cliff.
After walking about 30 minutes, we came up to the ridge, and we had “Suzuki Time” for rest and eating “grapes.” I offer fruits while other members provide “makgeolli” Korean traditional rice wine. I always enjoy this “rest time” and makgeolli.
After walking about one hour, we came to the ridge of good view. I could not see MaeBong, but I found SangHakBong easily because of the wooden marker.
The youngest member was “Po” from Thiland. She is in the middle of 20s. She is rather tall, active and lovely. She wore jersey pants, and they looked too warm for this kind of weather.
However, it became noon when we passed SangHakBong, so I called my fellow hikers to have lunch there. I ate lunch with several new-comers. We share lunch among hikers. I brought duck meat again and it was popular among those who shared the lunch.
After having lunch, we soon started walking, and we arrived at Mt. MyoBong at 1:25 p.m. Up till then, I was with the top group hikers.
From MyoBong to the down slope, we mistook the trail and had to return for about 15 minutes. Then I was behind the top group, yet, ahead of the 2nd group. As the result I was walking alone.
When I came down to the foot of the mountain, I noticed that there were many big pine trees which were hurt on the trunks with the sape of “heart.” These scars were made during the period of Japanese ruling the peninsula. They collected pine resin oil when they run out of fossil fuel. Foretunately, there were no explanations about “evil deeds” by Japanese ruling of the peninsula 65 years ago.
I came down along and came out to the paved road. Then I saw the 2nd group of AhToSan people were enjoying themselves in the river.
They invited me to join them, but I did not join them. I did have extra clothes, but it is bothersome to change clothes.
Then I saw some members of the 1st group, again in the river. Among them, a husband of the young couple spoke to me while walking. I talked about Japanese mountains with him, all the way to the bus stop.
The parking lot was rather far way (about 4 km or so), so one of the staff members, went to pick up the bus and persuaded the bus driver to come to pick up the members from the parking lot.
The driver agreed, so the rest of members could take on the bus on the way to the parking lot. Then we had “tippuri” party at the parking lot.
The menue of the “Tippuri” was duck meat and makgeolli. I continued to talk about moutains in Japan with the guy while drinking makgeolli.
After the party, we were on the way to Daejeon. The driver stopped at the famous pine tree of SongNiSan. The pine tree is famous about its good shape. There is a legend that a king loved the pine tree very much, so ge gave high official rank to the tree.
We came back to Daejeon at 7:15 p.m.
2010年9月4日(土)、快晴
登山場所：忠北（チュンブク충북）報恩（ポウン）보은、俗離山（ソンニサン속리산）国立公園内、上鶴峰(サンハクボン상학봉834m)-妙峰(ミョボン묘봉879m)
同行者：ベルナルド、マサシら天文宇宙科学研究院の若者7人を含むアトサン会員45名
コース：龍花温泉[ウヌン1里(운흥1리)]-鷹峰（メボン매봉）-上鶴峰-妙峰-ヨジョク岩여적암-ヨジョク岩谷여적암골-サネリ사내리駐車場(俗離山観光ホテル付近)で歩行距離は12キロ、歩行時間は6時間～7時間。
9月に入って最初の登山は有名な俗離山国立公園内で比較的登山者が少ない北西方面の岩場の多い上鶴峰と妙峰だ。
今回も前回2回に引き続き座席はいっぱいで、空きはない。今回は特にベルナルドが日本人のマサシを含む仲間の若者6名を連れてきてにぎやかだ。外国人はマサシと私の日本人が２人、メキシコ人とタイ人の計４名である。
登山場所が近いので出発点の龍花温泉[운흥(ウヌン)1里)には８時48分に到着。９時前にはもう歩き始めた。
今回のコースはウヌン１里のマウル会館脇を通ってしばらく平坦な上り坂で左右に畑があり、やがて山に入ってからも前２回ほどの急坂はなかった。
途中、ツユクサが目についた。韓国語の名前は「タクエチャンプル(鶏の長草) 닭의장풀」だが、絶壁の途中にちょうど花束のように群生しているのが見えた。
３０分ほどの上りで稜線に出て、「スズキタイム」にしたが、今回はブドウだけ購入。アランドロンのパングルトマトが新鮮でおいしかった。また、途中でごちそうになるマッコリはいつもうまい。
１時間ほどの登山で見晴らしの良い稜線にでた。ミナムボンやメボンはわからなかったが、上鶴峰は標識があってわかりやすい。
ベルナルド一行のうち、一番若いのはタイからの研修生スランカナ・ルクデーで、別名「ポー」。大柄の女の子だがなかなか愛嬌がある。しかし、この天気でジャージーは暑そうだ。
上鶴峰を過ぎた稜線で、比較的見知らぬ連中と昼食にした。ベルナルド一行に声をかけたが彼らは別の場所を探して食べたようだった。私が持参したおかずのうち、前回同様、オリコギ(カモ肉)が人気だった。
食後、ちょうど１時にアムヌンを通過。１時２５分には妙峰に着いた。ここまでは先頭組といっしょだった。
妙峰から下山路に入るところで先頭組とともに道を間違え、数１０メートルほど引き返して下った。
渓谷に沿ってのくだりでは、先頭よりは遅れ、次のグループよりは前を歩き、結局独り歩きになった。
今回も近頃降った雨のせいか、さまざまなキノコが目についた。
ふもと近くになると樹齢100年を超す松の大木の幹がハート形に傷つけられているのが目についた。これは植民地時代に化石燃料が不足したため、松脂を採った跡だが、幸いなことに日帝の悪行を記した記述はなかった。
渓谷沿いに下りて舗装道路に出た部分がヨジョクアムらしかったが、この部分で第２グループが水遊びをしていた。
私は着替えを持ってはいたが後処理がめんどうなので川には入らなかった。途中、先頭グループの中の最後尾の３人が川に入っているのをみて、このうち、夫婦のうちの男性と日本の山の話をしながらあるいた。
俗離山の駐車場までは舗装道路を延々と歩かなければならない。先頭のチョンジョンが駐車場まで歩き、バスをピックアップしてマウル会館まで迎えに来てくれた。
全員をピックアップしてから駐車場へもどり、こちらでティップリ。今日のメニューはオリコギ(カモ肉)とマッコリでじつにうまかった。
日本の山の話をしたと男性と引き続き話をしながら飲んだ。
かえりがてら、名物の松の前で記念撮影をした。ここを５時半に出発しても、今回は近場なので、南門には７時１５分に着いた。
