A loaded cargo bicycle parked at a bridge over an earthen canal with trees and dried grass on the banks. A sign on a guardrail behind the bike is partly obscured by black spray paint over the school name, but seems to read “Miyoshi North District County Elementary School/Gathering Point/Departure Time 7:40” (三好町立北部小学校・集合場所・出発時間７時４０分). Not sure what the reason for the splotch of black paint is, but the sign must be at least 13 years old, since Miyoshi County became Miyoshi City in 2010.

A paved road rises up through a woodland. To the right of the road there is a cabin structure with a sign reading “Woodworking instruction walking trail” 木工教室・遊歩道

A faded sign reading: “Wildlife diversion gate/You may pass, but be certain to close the gate after you” 動物よけの門扉です・通行は可能ですが通った後必ず閉めてください・よろしくおねがいします

The sign is decorated with illustrations of a wild boar and a monkey.

A wooden sign reading (in translation): “Family Rental Bicycle (literally ‘rider-propelled vehicle’) Path”
