Japan Northern Alps - October 2025
This past October I went on a short trip to Japan with one main goal: to finally explore the Northern Alps. It’s something I’ve wanted to do for years, and this time everything lined up perfectly to make it happen. I’ve been to Japan a few times before, so I kept my stay in Tokyo short and focused most of my time on the mountains instead.
