"Yama to Kogen Chizu" (Mountain and Highland Map) is a long-selling mountaineering map brand with a 60-year history. It covers all of the "100 Famous Japanese Mountains" selected by Kyuya Fukada and encompasses major mountainous areas. The information is kept up-to-date with annual on-site surveys by mountain professionals. It's an essential item that helps you grasp your "destination" and "current location," which are crucial when hiking.
Crafted for Practicality with On-Site Surveys
This map is meticulously designed with a focus on "practicality" for both planning and actual mountaineering. Essential information, including hiking trails, locations of mountain huts and water sources, hazardous spots, and landmarks, is verified through on-site surveys. Junctions and complex routes are detailed with enlarged maps and illustrations. Points with a high risk of getting lost are clearly marked.
Additionally, magnetic north lines are pre-printed at regular intervals, making it easy to check the declination between true north and the magnetic north indicated by a compass.
