I also went to Hokkaido for about two weeks in the summer. My husband and I started our trip in Shiretoko and came down all the way to Sapporo. We climbed Mt. Rausu (one of the most famous 100 mountains), and that was hard! That's what it looks like in the picture. Yes, I was on the top. Unbelievable.
We camped a few nights and hitchhiked several times to save money, and we were quite successful. Hokkaido is such as beautiful place.
