Unaksan Hike; Gapyeong (Sept. 22, 2012)

Photos are from hike up Unaksan (937.5 meters), "The Rock Mountain in the
Clouds" in Gapyeong, Gyeonggi Province. 
We traveled by bus (approx. 2 hrs. each way from Cheongnyangni Station) to the mountain and hiked for approx. 5-1/2 hours.  Some foliage was already starting to change color.  The following is the website introducing the
mountain.

Enjoying popsicles on the top.  This guy hauls them up the mountain, packed in dry ice, to sell them from KRW 2000 each.  He does this every day of the year, except in winter.  Maybe he knows some shortcuts to the top, but he still hikes 5 hours every single day - he must be very fit!
