The top of Kurodake (black mountain )

            This past March was the coldest March in our recent history, I think I never saw this much of snow in March here ever before this day.    I was scared of the hill, it was really slippery and windy, so my Bluetooth devices and Internet were both very slow and kind of erratic.   I decided to walk a bit from here to took a bus back home as I knew it was much safer than me driving back on the icy slippery road.  

So, I had to walk about 4km in this mountain to get back to the bus stop.  I was lucky I wore my Timberland boots not my sneakers, so I could walk normally without serious injuries or like that.  On my way back from this part of mountain (the coldest part of it), I found a few deer and wild pigs.  

I think I sometimes like boots but most of times I hate them as they are so rigid and heavy on my feet..   So, for me the cheap Nike boots are more than enough.  I think I use them just once a year or maybe two times or like that, so I can't just justify paying 160 US or more for any pair of boots even really good ones like Redwing or Nikcs.
