山岳部遭難案件について　12月1日 | Staying Safe in the Mountains (Dec 2024)

秋登山より、山岳地帯において、遭難捜索や救助の事案が続いています。

無理な行程計画や装備の不備（冬季用ではない寝袋・テント不備など）

や体力不足が主な原因と思われます。

ご自身の登山スキルに応じた計画をお立ていただくようにお願い致します。

屋久島の山は一気に冬山になっています。

必ず冬山装備を持参するようにお願い致します。

With the seasons changing to autumn and winter, extra safety precautions must be taken by those of us venturing into the mountains.

These past weeks, Yakushima has seen many search and rescue operations for people under-equipped for cold-weather hiking.

Please be sure to have all the necessary equipment for your cold-weather hike. This includes, but is not limited to, extra layers of warm clothes, wind- and rain-resistant clothing, winter sleeping bags, and tents.

As the island descends further into winter, specialised equipment such as crampons, rope, ice picks, etc become necessary. Plan ahead, and be prepared. The mountains are more dangerous than you think!
