Acha & Bulam: Two days, two very different hikes

Day ONE: ACHA Mt.
The weather was grey and misty. It rained a bit, and the peak was windy, windy.
Achasan has all sorts of interesting sites atop it, like rock piles, traditional gazebos, electrical towers, stump fields...etc, etc. The wind was strong and you could see low hanging clouds stretch across the city.
DAY two: Sunny, Sunny BulamSan.
The sun shone brightly, the sky was blue. The weather was hot and people were friendly.
Unlike Saturday, everyone seemed to be in a chatty mood. Although, it seems, the temperature of the day has less to do with what someone chooses to wear than does the time of year. I got crazy looks for wearing a tank top, even though I was boiling. I couldn't understand how anyone could stand to wear a jacket in that heat!
