For campsites near Amagi, I'm not going to be of much help I'm afraid - we peeled off the main road and drove into the hills before pitching beside some random river. For onsen, however, I'd definitely recommend you take a wander to Shuzenji if you haven't been - it's the last stop on the train line out of Mishima. Beautiful place, and a whole bunch of good onsen down there. Hey Nigel, good to hear from you.

Nah, it was this geological fieldtrip (school) by my company, so we just went around some tiny hills/cliffs in Labuan and Bintulu, with our notebooks. Kinabalu?

I am thinking of taking some new camping gear for a practice run down to Amagi over the coming weekend ... just wondered what your recommendations for camp grounds/spots and onsen? Cheers Beautiful pics again Chris.

This will be rectified, though! Clint, Hendrik, Tornadoes28, Jason - thanks guys. As I mentioned above, I will get life in order and work through the backlog of photos and trips, and everything else.. Joe - looking forward to it would be putting it mildly :-) Hey Wes - one day, dude, one day... Dave - Myogi (or rather, Hoshiana-dake, which those spires are) is a b*gger to photograph. It's low (only 1080m) and hazy, and the mountain itself is dark rock and aligned east-west, so either the skies are blown out of the mountain is. I had to post-process a bit too much to get that shot - but I'm happy you like it!! Tracy - coming up shortly!! Project Hyakumeizan - good to see you the other day, and look forward to the Kyushu reports (sans snakes, of course!) Peter/Hirobot/Rockie - thanks, as always - you're all far too kind.. The Envoy - good to hear. You didn't make it up Kinabalu by any chance? Joshua - absolutely right, it is a shame. But then, I like my mountains to myself, so I'm not entirely sorry that the crowds stay away :-) BTW, enjoying your daily Fuji photos! Mike - good to finally meet you the other evening, and thanks for the link. You're one of the few to know the snake story.. And never underestimate the miraculous self-healing powers of the Nikkor 18-200mm VR lens. A few good twists and it is completely back to normal now! Of course, the exterior (as you saw) is beyond redemption, but then we all have a few scars. Hi David – you’re dead right – too much going on right now, and too few pics to go with it..

I keep doing hiking trips around Yamanashi and am always amazed by the beauty of Japan's mountains and landscape. Its a shame that more Japanese people don't take some time and see it all.

Was down in Borneo last week on a fieldtrip...once I had my hiking boots on, something took over me and all the worries and stress from the office just melted away....if only for a moment.
