With the music and all the atmosphere we could think this person at 0:47 was some kind of youkai lol. Seriously beautiful, great choice of music to go with all that! Looks like you stayed there a couple days, did you camp there or did you go to some kind of lodging?

@Ido013 Nope, just a 1 day hike to Jomon-sugi and back. The music is written about the island iteself, so that's why it is so fitting ;).

This video was great! Do you happen to know what species of tree that was between :20 and :35? It looked to be very old and had a split trunk.

[gakuranman]

@cloudstrifeification I think it's just a regular sugi (cedar) tree.

ooooo ~ the mononoke-hime forest!! so beautiful!

it amazes me that a country as small as japan can pack in such a variety of beautiful scenery. canada has a lot beautiful places too but it's the second biggest country.
