Waga, located in the central part of the Ou Mountains, straddles the border between Akita and Iwate prefectures and is also known as a "virgin territory." The deep V-shaped valleys and the vast primeval beech forests that keep people away are a treasure trove of valuable flora and fauna. • Vivid Records of the Four Seasons: This book introduces the vivid and beautiful expressions of Mt. Waga in each of the four seasons, from the harsh winter that endures heavy snow and strong winds to the "heavenly garden" of summer where lovely alpine plants bloom, with powerful color photographs. • For Those Who Love Local Nature: As a local nature photo book, and for those who are interested in mountaineering, the remote areas of Tohoku, beech forests, alpine plants, and the scenery of heavy snowfall areas, this is a valuable book with high documentary value. • About the Authors: Kihei Takahashi is known as a leading nature photographer, and together with Satoshi Onodera, they have been taking pictures of this remote mountain for many years. Through their passion and refined sensitivity, the breathtaking natural beauty of Mt. Waga is beautifully captured. [Product Details] • Title: Seasons of Mt.
