≪National Council of School Libraries Selected Books≫.
[Akaishidake] is not only big and sharp, but also rather dark and plain.
However, its appearance seemed to overlap with my own somehow.

Climbing mountains is tough.
We had no information, and everything was done by hand.
That feeling of desperation.
The sense of accomplishment that came next.
That's why it was fun.

Akaishidake is located in the southern part of the Southern Alps and consists of a high peak (3,121 meters above sea level) and a deep valley.
The Akaishi Mountains, including Mt. Akaishi, are a group of modest but large and sturdy mountains with almost no sharpness. The author, who says that such a mountain's appearance overlapped somewhat with his own views, has been chasing Akaishi-dake for more than 40 years since his first ascent in 1973.

What was it about this mountain that attracted him so much?
What has changed and what has not changed in 40 years?
This is a collection of mountain photographs that conveys the beauty and strength of the mountains and the fascination of the tough and interesting mountaineering, for all those who love mountains.

[Comment from the Editor]
When the author started mountaineering, information was not as readily available as it is today, and the conditions in the mountains were not known until one was there.
Naturally, mountaineering was always fraught with danger. It was because of these conditions that I felt the tension and the sense of accomplishment when I overcame a dangerous place. This book conveys those feelings vividly.

Today, with the increase in the number of well-maintained mountain trails and the improved accuracy of GPS and information, the conditions surrounding mountaineering have changed dramatically. The surrounding area is also undergoing development, such as the planned construction of a tunnel for the Linear Central Shinkansen bullet train line under the Southern Alps, which includes Mt.
However, the mountain's appearance has not changed. How precious it is that they remain unchanged. And we must preserve the unchanged appearance for future generations. I hope to convey these thoughts of the author.

About the Author
Yoshihiro Yamauchi
Born in Tokyo in 1947.
In the summer of 1973, he climbed Mt. Akaishi alone for the first time, and has been chasing this mountain for more than 40 years since then.
