However, when the victim did not descend the mountain even though it was over 2 days before the scheduled descent, the Hokkaido Police Mountain Disaster Rescue Team searched for the victim at the request of the family, and found only the tent of the victim in distress in the vicinity of Hakuun-dake on February 3, the same year. Asahidake on July 12, 2008, near the 7th station of Mt. Jigokudani near the upper part of Jigokudani, the person in distress was identified as the person in distress.
