In the mountain accident that occurred in March 2022, from the initial response, the police and fire department shared the search area and discovered it during the search.
After a mountain accident occurs, the police and fire department will begin rescue and search operations, but private rescue and search teams can also be dispatched at the same time.
Early discovery is possible by splitting up and searching distress points in a short period of time.
We received a lot of effort from the Tokyo Mountaineering Federation.
Thank you very much.
Six years have passed since the accident in May 2016, and the search continues.
Last year, we were able to trace their footsteps at that time, and we are currently looking for pairs of a man and a woman to obtain information on sightings.
Thank you for your cooperation.

``We are looking for a male-female pair who may have encountered a 21-year-old man who was lost in May 2016.
The male and female pair must have traveled from Shinhotaka to Kagamihira on May 4, 2016, staying at the Sugoroku winter hut, and headed to Mt. Washu on May 5. The men are thought to be experts, and may be considered guides or mountaineers. Just knowing whether or not you have encountered a person in distress can be an important clue. ”
