Context: We begin our ascent walking past old people three times our age decked out with hiking boots , head lamps , calf protectors and the works ... we have only got our sandals and some long sleeve t shirts . I m not quite sure if we know what were in for ... including the fact that we 're in a mass exodus of old people to Japanese mecca on a mountain . We arrive at the first safety station only to be detained by the Mt. Security guards that proclaim that our Chaco sandals are unfit for this hike and we do not have flashlights and so are completely unprepared for the hike .
