Fuji' in February of this year, which commemorated the 60th anniversary of the 'Mountain and Highland Map' publication. )) Due to the immense popularity of the first 3 releases, it has officially become a series! (( The 'Mountain and Highland Map' series is a long-selling mountaineering map that originated from the 'Mountain Map' launched in 1965, which celebrated its 60th anniversary last year. It has gained stable popularity as Japan's only nationwide mountaineering map series. For each of the 63 products, 'mountain professionals' familiar with the area conduct field surveys, and the maps are revised annually based on those results. The first jigsaw puzzle, 'Mountain and Highland Map Jigsaw Puzzle: Yarigatake/Hotakadake Kamikochi', released in June last year, generated a huge response from mountaineering enthusiasts and puzzle fans due to the precision of the map and the difficulty of the puzzle. It even temporarily sold out at the Shobunsha online store (currently 'Chizuya Honpo') immediately after release. Subsequently, 'Yatsugatake' in December and 'Mt. Fuji' in February of this year were also released and continue to boast stable popularity. Now, as the highly anticipated fourth installment of the series, the 'Tsurugi and Tateyama' edition will be released. 'Mt. Tsurugi' is known as one of the Northern Alps' most prominent rocky peaks, and 'Mt. Tateyama' is a famous mountain that has been an object of worship since ancient times. The rugged terrain, with its many layers of complex contour lines, is said to boast the highest class of 'summit (completion) difficulty*' (according to the person in charge) as a jigsaw puzzle. Please enjoy the thrill of mountaineering—facing harsh nature while tracing the route—right on your tabletop. *Regarding the difficulty of this puzzle
