My hiking inclination
I considered what mountain I want to climbe and walk.
-- I want to walk along the west end of Saitama Prefecture.
Where most I want to walk along are the border between Saitama and Nagano,Yamanashi,Gumma and Tokyo.
which are in contact with Saitama Prefecture.

Or I want to walk and exceed the border. I want to walk along the paths which cannot be passed through by car because they are too steep and narrow.
I can draw such inclinations.
The mountain along which I am walking is the reverse-side of Tokyo
(north side beyond the border Okutama Ridge between Saitama and Tokyo).
Where I encounters nobody because of traffic inconvenience for those who come from the Tokyo side.

And I want to feel there are many such places being located in the Tokyo suburbs.
