The view from the bottom of the cable car.
An awesome sign that really makes sense....
A view from the top of the cable car. We hiked to the top of that peak way in the distance.
We saw this everywhere on the mountain. Couples will buy a lock and have it engraved with their names and then lock it onto a chain on the mountain. I think they throw away the key as well. It's supposed to symbolize their everlasting love for each other.
These signs were on the mountain in a number of locations and were very useful in knowing how far it was to the next location. The times were drastically underestimated in my opinion (unless you spend hours on a stairclimber on a regular basis maybe).
Lots of stairs on this mountain and some were a little scary....
Danger! No Crossing!
Because right behind the sign it drops off a couple of thousand feet....
It's about 1000 steps from this point down to the buildings in the middle of the photo. I just climbed up those steps and counted.... Wish I could say I was at the top, but I wasn't even close yet....
This part was optional, which was probably a good thing, since a lot of people were having trouble getting up it!
We took a different cable car back down to the bottom. The cable car came out of a hole in the side of the mountain.
Looking straight down it was quite a drop!
