We are trecking in Shiretoko- world natural heritage area in Hokkaido for a week. Taking flight to Nakashibetsu Airport in the north east of Hokkaido on the 17th of September. Catching fish and bears on the way to the cope of Shiretoko. For details cantact me by mail. Now we are a team of 4 people and we can have 7 or 9 people in total.
planned flight:

******************************************
At this stage we have not fixed the airport to fly back from… but the date of return will be on the 23rd.
I have been to the Shiretoko for a week before 3 years ago, I did not go to the cape of the peninsula then but we are planning to go to the cape this trip.
Equipment:
-summer clothes for the daytime and winter clothes for the night
-a decent Sleeping bag, a tent (if you do not have it let me know I will try to arrange something through friends.)
-headlight, maybe a helmet ( not sure it is a must)
-a Gas/Oil Cooker
-Headlight
-Cooking Utensils
-Trekking boots and a pair of shoes that can go into sea water(something more than a beach sandals. Need to ccovering your toes.)
-toiletries( there is no structured toilet in the trekking routes.)
Cost: ?approximately 10,000~yen for sharing a rental car from/to airport, ?food for the camping period and food in town, ?besides equipment ?return transport to where you live. (We are all taking below flight from Tokyo. If you need help booking I ask me. 3 of us have already booked and paid for.) ?boat fare if we take the boat back from the cape.
This is what I can think of at the moment.
There are trout and/or salmon in rivers so we have plenty of fish to eat around then. Some of us also plan to get some volunteer experience work on my friend fisherman’s boat at Utoro.
Probably we will take this route:
