Photos from Dobongsan

Two photos from a mountain climb on Dobongsan that I’m quite proud of. One is the view of the mountain range from the top. The other is of a helicopter that circled the peaks we were on while we were up there, rescuing an injured climber. The path back down was far too steep and treacherous for anyone less than able-bodied to get back down again.

Dobongsan is a great mountain that’s e asily reachable from the metro. Just take line 1 north to Dobongsan station (도봉산 역) (not Dobong station – 도봉 역) and follow the wide road and throngs of hikers towards the mountain, passing restaurants, street-food and hiking equipment shops (which finish a little too-far up the mountain for my liking)

There’s been a little post processing in Lightroom to get some exposures closer to a HDR photograph.
