Google Translated Description
The person in distress was on his way down the mountain. The victim’s right leg cramped up near Tomuraushi Park and he had difficulty walking near the Kamui Ceiling, so he called 110 and requested rescue. The Hokkaido Police Mountain Rescue Team was dispatched, but the victim descended to the trailhead on his own.
