Mountain Database



Elevation gains, hike distance, budget and mountain huts. Every week I am faced with the struggle of finding the next mountain to hike, as each mountain requires a varying degree of planning and I realize that I’ve been going back and forth, confirming details again and again. And again.

So I figured I better summarize them, including mountains I haven’t hiked, and hopefully others can make use of it too. I use google sheets, and update it whenever I can. But here’s what I have for now (just 17! haha. Boy, this is a LOT of work). 

*PS, if you have a mountain you want to hike that’s not here, just lemme know and I can probably prioritize drafting a plan for that...or telling you that’s a no-no haha.

As a guide, here are what the symbols mean:

    1. Is it possible to have the mountains sorted in Descending order ie showing the tallest mountains first ? Have you hiked Mt Aino in Yamanashi ...this mountain is next to Mt Kita (2nd tallest) ?

    1. I could, but I don't do the hikes by elevation. You can check the list here if you want by elevation : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mountains_and_hills_of_Japan_by_height

      yes, I have done Aino, which is close to Kita.

  7. Extremely great database, thank you for sharing.

    I can't seem to get the filters working. I want to be able to filter the view to something like.. Only show hikes from Tokyo where I can camp. Is it possible to set up the Sheet to make filtering possible?
