It was a national holiday, Marine Day in Japan.
So, there were many hikers in the mountain. The weather was cloudy influenced by Tyhoon 6. Though it was in the middle of July, it was not sizzling hot, but rather cool day and good for hiking.
The bus bounding for Yabitsu from Hadano left at 7:35. It was full with hikers. The bus arrived at the pass at 8:10. I started walking after using the toilet there. I arrived at Fujimi Lodge at 8:40 from which the uphill trail began.
I arrived at Ninotou at 9:45, so it took about one hour from Fujimi Lodge. From Ninoto, I walked along the ridge trail, it was quite comfortable.
I arrived at Sannotou at 10:10. There I took a short rest and ate one rice ball which my wife made. Then I arrived at Karasuoyama at 10:45 and Gyoshagatake at 11:06. The hardest spot was Gyoshagatake along the ridge trail, but I experienced much harder slope in Korea. I arrived at Shindainichi at 11:49 and reached at the top of Tounodake at 12:40.
So, it took me for 4 hours and 20 minutes from Yabitsu Pass to Tounodake. I had lunch there.
While having lunch, I noticed that there were two male deer (stags) browsing on the grasses near the top of the mountain. I could take nice pictures of stags and Mt. Fuji there. Soon after I took pictures, the clouds covered the mountain and I could not see Mt. Fuji any more.
When I finished lunch, and began decending the mountain, I noticed that there were two female deer (does) with a small deerlet. So there were many deer in the mountain.
I began decending the mountain at 1 p.m. and arrived at Ohkura Bus Stop at 3:20 p.m. So, it took me 2 hours and 20 minutes for 6.8 km.
When I came down to the road, I noticed that beautiful "mountain lily" was blooming. This wild lily is the flower of Kanagawa prefecture. It has strong fragrance.
On the bus to Shibusawa from Ohkura, I noticed a middle-aged couple whom I saw on the bus from Hadano to Yabitsu. So, I talked to them.
They said they were from Setagaya, Tokyo. Both of them enjoy hiking as a common hobby. How nice it is to have a common hobby, I thought.
I went back to Ofuna via Yokohama using Sotetsu Line. It was 5:30 p.m. when I came back to Ofuna. I missed seeing Sumo on TV that day.
By seeing TV news, I became to know that Nadeshiko Japan won World Cup of Women Soccer that day.
It was my 41st hike for this year.

登山月日:2011年7月18日(月)海の日
登山地:神奈川県丹沢、塔ノ岳(1491m)
登山コース:ヤビツ峠~二ノ塔~三ノ塔~烏尾山~行者岳~新大日~塔ノ岳~大倉バス停
同行者:なし
天気は台風6号の影響で曇り。したがって炎天というコンディションではない。むしろ涼しい登山ができた。
ヤビツ峠行きのバスは秦野駅前7:35発で、ほぼ満員。このバスに乗るには大船を6:04発の下り電車に乗るとちょうど良い。
バスはほぼ満員。さすがに休日はハイカーが多い。バスは8:10にヤビツ峠に到着。
トイレを使ってから8:20に出発。富士見小屋に8:40到着。二の塔に9:45だから富士見小屋からほぼ1時間で歩いた。
三の塔には10:10で、ここで小休止。おにぎり1個を食べた。その後、烏尾山荘に10:45、行者が岳には11:06、新大日には11:49に到着した。
正午が近かったが、昼食は塔ノ岳にしようと思い、そのまま進んだのは正解だった。塔ノ岳には12:40に到着。
上りの7.8kmは4時間20分かかったことになる。ちょうどこの時に低い雲が晴れて富士山が見え、また山頂付近には牡鹿が2頭、草を食んでいた。
二人の山ガールの写真を撮ってあげて、自分も自分のカメラで写真を撮ってもらった。
その後、鹿をみながら昼食をとっているうちに山頂は低い雲に覆われ、富士山はこのあと二度と見えなくなった。
昼食を終え、雲の中を下りはじめると今度は雌鹿が2頭と小鹿が1頭、これも登山道に近いゆるい斜面の草を食んでいた。
下りはじめたのは午後1時で、バス停に着いたのが午後3時20分だから、下りの6.8kmは2時間20分で歩いたことになる。
また、バス停の道路脇には神奈川県の県花である「山百合」の見事な花が咲いていた。
ㅠ渋沢行きのバスの隣には行きのバスに乗ってまったく同じコースを歩いた品の良い中年夫婦が座ったので話をした。
世田谷に住む夫婦で毎週山に登ることを目標にしているが、現実には隔週程度に登山を楽しんでいると言う。夫婦で同じ趣味と言うのはうらやましい。
バスは午後3時38分発だから渋沢には4時ごろ到着。海老名から相鉄で横浜に出て、大船に着いたのは午後5時半過ぎで、大相撲のTV観戦には間に合わなかった。
この日のビックニュースはなでしこジャパンが世界最強の米国チームを逆転で破り金メダルを取ったこと。
今回の登山は今年41回目。静かな単独山行だった。
