Mt. Tateyama is the precipitous mountain that I love the most in the many mountains in Japan. We went its foot and walked around afar seeing the severe mountain’s cliffs from here and there. It was a really fantastic experience for us. Seeing the mountain is my and wife’s long desire. Many family, hikers, travellers and genuine climbers were gathering all over Japan and overseas. Their camping base is located below under the mountain bottom. Looking down the scene gave us also very fine feeling for the mountain and the climbers.
