Google Translated Description
The person in distress, having read a mountain guidebook, judged that it would take about one hour to reach the summit of Mt. However, after about an hour, they had not reached the summit of Mt. Furano, so they turned around and went back to the trailhead, but it became dark around them at sunset, and they became inoperable near the Kami-horo junction. The Hokkaido Police Mountain Distress Rescue Team found and rescued the victim.
