08.10.28 Life » Seoraksan - 설악산

On the weekend we decided to get away and head to Seorak mountain (설악산). It took about 4 hours by car to get there due to some heavy traffic but it was well worth the wait. The scenery was really beautiful but a week or two ago might have been even better. Most of the autumnal tints had already passed leaving more bland brown tints. We hiked for about 5 hours in all.

The view from the top of the mountain was pretty nice but hindered by a sudden rush of rain clouds. The weather was beautiful at first but progressively got worse. The rain made the trek down the other side of the mountain a little tougher. It was quite slippery at times.

In the evening before heading to our condo we ate raw fish. It was quite a disappointing meal but nevertheless it satisfied out hungry stomachs. Before sleeping we drank some strong Korean liquor which helped us quickly pass out.
