Glacier Peak Hike
While at Alpine Lodge in the last days of the training week with Ōkamiyama, members of the two teams have the option to go on an overnight hike into the wilderness and camp beside a small lake with Glacier Peak in the distance. Nearly all members of Karasuno (except for Tsukishima and Yamaguchi) go along with Erik Thorvald, Kodah Stone, Alex Williams, Charlie Vo, and Taylor Martin from Ōkamiyama. The rest of the teams, managers, and coaches stay at the lodge. The hike is led by Erik’s older brother, Ragnar, and one of the translators comes along too. Below the cut are photos of the hiking and camping areas.
