Yotei, too beautiful not to run

It is 515am, after 4 days waking up early my body clock is wondering why I am not getting up to go climbing. I see pink clouds in the distance surrounding mount Yotei and the urge to go out is too great. I get dressed and go for a phenomenal trail run. It has snowed during the night so the roads are covered in a thin layer of powder, perfect for cushioning. I cross a forest, take pictures of Mount Yotei as it evolves with the early morning light. An hour and a half bathing with nature before heading back to Hong Kong.
