The 68th vulpine side shrine of Fushimi Inari Taisha, and the seventh within the Aokigataki cluster. It features the usual pair of life-sized stone foxes, with the left one holding a scroll, and the right one holding an orb.

I got a nice shot of the Iwakura. However, with the glyphs pretty faded and the glare of the sun, I can't make out the left name, apart from the "Ookami" at the end. Feel free to give it a go.
