I attempted to climb Mount Okuhotaka, the highest peak in the Northern Alps! 💪
In this video, I show you how I tackled Mount Okuhotaka from Karasawa Cirque via Zeitengrad!

I hope this video will be of some help to climbers who have questions like, "Can I really reach the top of Mount Okuhotaka?" 🙏
Climbing is all about planning and preparation, but there are many things you can't know until you're actually there.

While I wasn't able to reach the summit myself, I hope to share the valuable experience and information I gained along the way with you all. 😊
I hope this video will help you appreciate the charm of Mount Okuhotaka and inspire you to take on the challenge again! !!

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to share them in the comments section or on other social media.
