A fox shrine atop a wooded slope in the town of Sasaguri (篠栗 "Bamboo Grass Chestnut"). After climbing a long flight of stairs, I arrive at a shrine flanked by a pair of life-sized stone foxes. Interestingly, there a houses build on a ledge just behind and above the shrine, but there's no direct path to them from there.
