From Kimiko-daira to the summit of Okuhotaka-dake

Ascent to Okuhotaka-dake1 from Kimiko-daira2 via Tsuri-one3 after collecting my backpack left at Kimiko-daira. There are not dangerous points but you should be careful to pass people who comes from Okuhotaka-dake because the trail sometimes become narrow.
