Koohii stories:

1) [Megaqwerty] 20-7-2007(56): On the first day of the month, all the salmon go upstream, up the road, to the mating grounds.

2) [paasan] 29-7-2010(22): You accidentally ran over and killed the holy mountain goat on the road. Frightened by the view of the dead body and to save your own body from the angry villagers, you decide to run away from your bloodstained vehicle, jump into the river, and go upstream to hide your tracks.

3) [manubear] 10-8-2012(7): You decide to go salmon fishing, so you ride a mountain goat to the top of the road. Under the light of the moon, as it's illegal, you catch the salmon going upstream.

4) [Puchatek] 12-8-2011(5): In this kanji we see a mountain goat that decided to go upstream along a road, but for some reason it will only go upstream when the full moon is up. It's actually stubborn like a mountain goat about not going upstream along the road at any other period of time. The road itself is also very confused about this.

5) [mantixen] 30-7-2009(5): On the first day of the month the road to go upstream is opened for salmon fisherman.
