Alps to the sea. Japan's fastest river
This was a self-supported 10 day trip over a mountain and down the canyons into the river to the ocean. I had witnessed one of the most beautiful sunrises I had ever seen in Japan on the top of the mountain. The river was interesting, long periods of cruising, with good rapids that we were able to run with packrafts. We were able to pull this off with minimal problems due to strong logistics and good weather. I would do it again.
