Koohii stories:

1) [Katsuo] 6-10-2007(85): Standing at the base of the bluffs I announce, "I'm going to climb those ivy-covered cliffs, and then the mountain on top of them." My friends don't believe me, "He bluffs!" they say.

2) [dukelexon] 23-3-2008(16): The ivy-covered cliff we saw on the horizon (#157 涯) … the sheer beauty of the mountain that overlooks these bluffs is enough to make you want to swim for shore yourself!

3) [Meconium] 23-9-2009(11): This is used in the title of the 2008 Studio Ghibli film "Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea" 崖の上のポニョ。 "Ponyo on the Mountain-high Ivy-covered Bluffs by the Sea" is an alternative title. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponyo_on_the_Cliff_by_the_Sea.

4) [icamonkey] 12-8-2009(7): In 崖の上のポニョ (Ponyo), the bluffs are where Yousuke's house is, on the mountainous cliff covered in ivy.

5) [oregum] 6-11-2011(4): To get to the MOUNTAIN BLUFFS you have to scale the IVY CLIFFS.
